Who set up the Guinness World Record?

195 1 year, Hugh Beaver, the general manager of British Guinness Beer Company, let the golden eagle escape because he didn't aim. When he came back, he complained to his colleagues that the golden eagle was the fastest bird in the world, but his companions disagreed with him. They had an argument about it. Beaver tried to find evidence for his conclusion from books, but none of them described the speed of the bird in detail. Beaver thinks it would be great if there is a book that can record "the best in the world". After careful consideration, he decided to publish the book by his own company. So he set up the editorial department of World Records at Fleet Street 107 in London, and organized many people to start writing this book. 1On August 27th, 955, the first book of world records was printed. Because it was initiated by Beaver, general manager of Guinness Beer Company, it was named Guinness World Records. Since then, this book has been done. Although the content is constantly updated, the title of the book has not changed.
