Knygos aprašymas

Product Description Making explosives is a dangerous business.The Royal Gunpowder Mills were engagedin that business for nearly 300 years andaccidents do happen. This is the record ofthose accidents in which people lost theirlives either in explosions or in the waterwayswhich provided much of the early drivingforce for the Mills. The information comesnot only from the official enquiries andinquests but from contemporary local andnational newspaper reports and parishmagazines. About the Author Richard Thomas lectures about the history of the Waltham Abbey Royal Gunpowder Mills and about the Gunpowder Plot. He has worked in the Archives at the Mills for ten years. In that time he became particularly interested in the various accidents and explosions that punctuated the manufacture of the sometimes unstable products that were made at Waltham Abbey. It was a natural progression to make a specialised study of those accidents. This book is a distillation of those studies.
