Any good books about sea trade (around 14th - 18th century)?

I'm particularly interested about how sea trade worked, what goods were shipped, how much and where and why, commerce, trade routes, basically more focus on the business side of it.

Possibly if it had maps and charts and tables with goods and their prices during that time, etc. Something like the book Transformations in Slavery but about sea trade.

I'm not looking for books that focus solely on piracy and pirate life.
