Oh shit! Somehow I overlooked the fact that this was just the first volume (yes, about 600 pages). Uh, gonna have to revise my estimates. Found an online version of the whole thing so at least I don't have to download any more massive files.

This is suddenly a much bigger project! Wow! But I'm not daunted.

Hm. I think I can safely leave out the New World. And it might be worthwhile to just total up some places, e.g. Africa and Russia, as big giant single "cities" for now. Wish I had a way to OCR these PDFs and some way to scan through them for keywords "produce" and "manufacture" and "harvest" and similar keywords to help me along. Oh well, I guess this is one thing that's difficult whether or not it's computer aided.
