Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes a unique look at the influence that the iron mining and smelting industry had on the development of the First World War. When the war broke out, German forces immediately invaded the Briey Basin and occupied it for the duration of the war. This region, which produced almost 70% of the iron ore in France, was vital to the production of munitions. The author explores how this single region played a significant role in the war. Throughout the book, the author examines the internationalization of the steel industry and how the Comità des Forges, the French iron and steel combine, had a virtual monopoly on the industry. The author asserts that it was because of this stronghold that the Lorraine front was unusual in its tranquility. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
