Viac o knihe

The biography delves into the life of William Edward Hipkins, a key figure in the industrial revolution, whose career and legacy were tragically cut short by the Titanic disaster. Born into a family of corkscrew makers, he transformed W.&.T. Avery Limited and saved the Soho Foundry, becoming a pivotal player in the weighing industry. The narrative explores his management style, personal struggles, and the challenges of the 19th-20th century industrial landscape, highlighting themes of triumph, tragedy, and a bygone era of innovation and competition.
