Brimstone, The Stone That Burns: The Story Of The Frasch Sulphur Industry is a book by Haynes Williams that provides a comprehensive history of the Frasch Sulphur Industry. The book is an in-depth exploration of the discovery, development, and production of sulphur from the Frasch process, which was invented by Herman Frasch in the late 19th century. The book covers the early experiments and trials of the process, its commercialization and expansion, and its impact on the economic and social landscape of Louisiana and Texas. The author delves into the history of the industry, including the key players, the technological advancements, and the environmental and social issues that arose from the production of sulphur.
