VRIES, B.W. DE

Of Mettle and Metal. From court Jews to World-wide industrialists. ISBN 9789057420290

Amsterdam, Neha, 2000. 149 pp., illustrated after photographs. Very good copy. Orig. cloth with dustjacket. An economic enterprise enduring for more than six generations can be regarded as a rare phenomenon. De Vries' study, describing and analyzing various businesses spanning ten generations may therefore be considered truly outstanding. The author leads the reader from the humble activities of Jewish tradesmen in the war-plagued Holy Roman Empire of the 17th century, a time of persecutions and expulsions from one German country to another, to their ascent to the unofficial but important status of Court Jews, to the establishment of an independent banking- and trading house - and, finally, to the development of several world-wide business conglomerates.
