About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Steel Hammer, by Louis Ulbach. A large inheritance greatly transforms the lives of three people: a good man, who would have inherited at least a part of the fortune if his uncle hadn't passed away before he could alter the will, his cousin, who inherits all but is prevented from enjoying it, and a gambler, who is in desperate need of such a sum of money. The connection of the three ends fatal for at least one of them. (Summary by Carolin)
