GREAT LIVES


Henry Royce, a young boy from England, started working at the age of four, scaring birds for a few coins. After his father’s untimely death when he was just nine, he had to sell newspapers to help support his family. Life was tough, often reduced to meals of bread dipped in milk.

Despite these hardships, Henry’s passion for learning never wavered. At 22, he began his entrepreneurial journey. His interest in automobiles ignited after he successfully repaired a French car, leading him to dream of creating a better vehicle.

This ambition brought him to Charles Rolls, a car dealer. Together, they founded Rolls-Royce in December 1904, heralding the start of a legendary brand. Today, Rolls-Royce is synonymous with luxury, producing some of the world’s most prestigious cars.

Sir Henry Royce, who became the chief designer of the company, only attended school for one year, acquiring most of his knowledge through self-education.
