FEAR NOT THE FIRE

Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and was one of the richest people in the world. He is well known as the benefactor who endowed the Nobel Prizes. 

Money and fame could not buy success with his private passions. Fear Not The Fire tells of a complicated man whose love for an unattainable woman and failed quest for acclaim as a playwright left him bitter and lonely. 

A combination of historical fact and conjecture, Nobel's life story is also the story of man's deadly pursuit of war machines and the money that was made in the chase.
