A history of the Bell chrysotile asbestos mine at Thetford Mines, Quebec, by George W. Smith, copyright 1968, with a foreword by Leigh W. Bladon. It traces ownership from the Boston Asbestos Packing Company through Bell's Asbestos Company of London, Keasbey and Mattison, and Turner and Newall. It covers mining, milling, transportation, the Relocations Project, company production figures and the Atlas Asbestos Company. It reports that by 1948 dust escaping from the mill's settling shed could no longer be tolerated, and that bag filters were installed in response.
