Mike,
No chance of that for the moment - I'm expected to produce at least two
papers for the economic history journals and today I found myself sketching
out the changes required to convert the thesis into a book.
Strategic minerals and metals, yes but it will take time to get into that
area. Roger has a new PhD student who will be working on the statistical
evidence for strategic metal production - should be interesting to see what
he comes up with. There is a potentially interesting paper on Spanish
wolfram production c. 1940-44 in the latest volume of the Journal of
Economic History (63) - only noticed while checking for recent publications
immediately prior to going into my viva, so had to leave it for later.
Hope to see you in Co. Wicklow.
Peter
