Another recent work that seems relevant is April Lee Hatfield's Atlantic
Virginia: Intercolonial Relations in the Seventeenth Century (2003). Don't
forget the work of the "masters" of colonial economic history like Jacob
Price and John McCusker. Was it Walter Minchinton who edited the microfilm
edition of the manuscript naval officers' returns (full of raw trade data
from about the 1680s on)?
