The life story of William Armstrong, a first class engineer, industrialist and scientist and one of the 19th century’s leading arms manufacturers who, along with Arnold Krupp, owner of the famous German weapons factory, competed for international orders and sold to anyone, at a price. Armstrong was knighted in 1858 after gifting his gun patents to the British government.
