In this rich study of the pre-industrial city in early modern Europe, Jan de Vries uses modern demographic techniques to reconstruct life in Würzburg between 1696–1711. He emphasises the critical role of migrants to the urban community, with wider implications for understanding urban historical demography across Germany and Europe.
