Review # 1 was written on 2020-07-18 00:00:00 Les Baker So now BASIC is a thing of the past.. programs that took many hours to create and debug back then become cheap "apps" on iphones. Yet this book is one of the classsics of computing, and as such I think its an important record of what early computing was like.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-08-21 00:00:00 Jody Ginn This is a unique & really lovely collection of photos. Even though some of the original daguerreotypes are small, almost all the photos are uniformly-sized into full-page photos here; that, coupled with the high-quality print job, lets you see & appreciate the beauty & details of these early photos. There are some details available about some of the portrait subjects, but usually very little. It's too bad that the details of people's lives have been lost to the sands of history. A beautiful collection, lovingly presented.
