Book Synopsis Alfred Nobel by : Kenne Fant

Download or read book Alfred Nobel written by Kenne Fant and published by Arcade Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most complete and only full-length biography of the legendary inventor of dynamite and founder of the prizes that bear his name. As with many extraordinary lives, Nobel's biography reads better than most fiction - born in poverty, his creation of a safe method for detonating nitro-glycerine catapulted him to wealth and fame. Spurned by the woman he loved and dubbed 'the merchant of death' by a press horrified at the capabilities of dynamite, Nobel bequeathed his fortune to the foundation of prizes celebrating peace, literature and scientific achievement.
