Not a bad book by any stretch but I found it a bit difficult to get into sometimes, particularly because the anecdotes seemed a bit thinner than I would have liked. Regardless, it's an interesting history and if you enjoy books as physical objects, this is a good one to dive into if that's something you want to know more about.
