The four Wittmann brothers manufacture steel precision tools. Jochen (Joe) is a ruthless businessman who seeks to improve the bottom line at any cost. Friedrich (Fred) dabbles in Socialism but would never sacrifice his dividends. Wilhelm (Willie) prefers to collect art rather than visit the factory floor. Only Karl (Charles) , a widower, has the vision to keep the family business in the black. Now, as the winds of war sweep across Europe, anti-German sentiment turns the family's allies against them, and war profiteers threaten to remake the entire steel industry into a merchant of death. But Charles's greatest worry is that his son will be shipped overseas to die. " (from FantasticFiction).. Very Good in Fair dust jacket .
