    This work, published in 1973, constituted a truly groundbreaking study thanks to its examination of private archives, while lamenting the destruction of those belonging to the Crédit Municipal. In a clear and instructive style, the author demonstrates the connections between purely financial events and the general life of the nation. Madame Massa-Gille explains, with remarkable clarity and considerable detail, the step-by-step process of the audacious speculations undertaken by business leaders and entrepreneurs in the form of bonds, treasury bills, and bank discounts guaranteed by the City of Paris and the Crédit Municipal. Massa-Gille's work "goes beyond financial history, but even within this single domain, it offers many interesting insights and facts" (Marquant Robert in Bibliothèque de l'École des Chartes, no. 2/1974, p. 372 et seq.).
