If you have not seen the series of posts for which this is the References and Resources you can go direct to the first post here.

Here is the pdf for some slides of a lecture based on this same material.

Here are some html slides for a loosely related mini-lecture on the Economics of the Black Death.

If you want the original graphs as image files, the latex/beamer that creates the slides, or even the matlab script that downloads all the data and creates the graphs (with Plotly) you can find it all in this dropbox folder.
