Bashforth, a professor at the Advanced Class of the Royal Artillery, spent years conducting detailed experiments using a chronograph he invented. His results were published in 1870, providing valuable insights into the behavior of projectiles in the air. In 1881, the Krupp Company issued similar tables without acknowledging Bashforth's work and claiming credit for themselves. His protest against their actions was met with a weak defense from Krupp, who claimed to have used different methods despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The author's analysis of the dispute highlights the importance of acknowledging prior research and the significance of Bashforth's contributions to the field of ballistics.
