"Empire of Guns" by Priya Satia challenges traditional narratives of the Industrial Revolution by highlighting the crucial role of war and Britain’s gun trade in shaping the era's economic and imperial expansion. Through the story of Samuel Galton and Britain’s gun industry, the book explores how industrial progress and military needs were intertwined, shedding light on the origins of Britain’s global power and ongoing debates about military influence and gun control.
