“By choosing to study the leather trades in the city of Bordeaux at the end of the ancient régime, Daniel Heimmermann aims both to deepen our understanding of the provincial corporate world and to shed light on a productive sector that is still little known … . The book offers a valuable, lively, and well-documented social history … . Heimmermann set his careful study of the leather trades in a quite conventional interpretive framework … .” (Philippe Minard, Journal of Modern History, Vol. 89 (2), June, 2017)
