Summary "A Journey Through France in War Time" by Joseph G. Butler is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences and observations of the American Industrial Commission in France during World War I, highlighting the resilience and struggles of the French people amid the devastation of war. It provides insights into the industrial conditions, societal changes, and cultural contexts of wartime France. The opening of the book details the origins of the journey, describing a notable visit by a French commission to the United States seeking assistance in munitions and steel needed for the war. In response, the American Manufacturers' Export Association organized the Commission, composed of American industrialists, to study the situation in France. The initial chapters outline their purpose, preparation for the journey, and the preparations including securing travel documents and establishing organizational roles within the Commission, ultimately setting the stage for a mission aimed at fostering cooperation between American and French industries during a time of great turmoil.
