Description:
Sutton Publishing, 1999 8vo (20.5 cm), X, 182 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket. "The true story of Count Rumford, a man who brought more benefit to mankind than most men of his time. Throughout his adventurous life, Rumford's passion was for science - he was known as "The spy who conquered the cold" after he discovered how heat was made - and his revolutionary inventions improved heating, lighting and cooking facilities. He was also a philanthropist setting up workhouses, originating the idea of soup kitchens and, most famously, establishing the Royal Institution. Yet, despite becoming Under- Secretary of State in the British Government, being knighted by George III and founding a Rumford Professorship at Harvard, Rumford was vilified by Cobbett, Gillray aand Cruickshank, and he died almost alone in France."
