 Alfred Nobel was born on October 21, 1833 in Sweden. His important invention was dynamic – a powerful explosive. This dynamic business made him a very rich man.
	One day, Alfred Nobel read about his death in a newspaper. In fact, it was his brother’s death. The reporter called him a salesman of death, ‘The Dynamite king’. Nobel was very upset. He had invented dynamic to save lives – lives were lost because other explosives were dangerous to use. He hated violence and war. And he didn’t like the world to think of him as a man of war.
	He thought of the best way for people to use his fortune for years. Finally he knew what to do with his fortune. Alfred Nobel established the Nobel Prize, an annual award to honour leaders of science, literature and world peace. Alfred Nobel died on December 10, 1896. He was unmarried and had no children.
