This is the story of one of the most dynamic entrepreneurs in
modern French history. Drawing upon a wealth of archival and
private documentation. Lewis uncovers the history of
Pierre-Francois Tubeuf and assesses his contribution to the
development of industry in France. Lewis explores the relationship
between seigneurial, proto-industrial, and modern forms of
capitalism in the Cevennes region of southeastern France in the
eighteenth century, and demonstrates the international scope of
proto-industrialization. This subtle and scholarly study seeks to
unravel the complex problems associated with the impact of the
French Revolution on the processes of modern French capitalism.
Lewis traces the responses of a wide variety of individuals,
including Tubeuf and his greatest rival, the marechal de Castries.
He examines the epic struggle of these two powerful men for control
of the rich coal-mines of the region, and their legacy to
succeeding generations.
