Typewriter by Tony Allan
Filled with unique information and archival photos of writers at their typewriters-- Typewrite is a fascinating look at one of the great inventions in history. Personal computers may have replaced the typewriter in most homes and offices, but the venerable writing machine is currently staging a comeback. From portable models that hipsters are snapping up to Tom Hank's bestselling app that recreates the sound of a manual typewriter on a modern tablet, the typewriter has never been so hot. This celebration of the typewriter covers what a platen knob is, why QUERTY won out over all the other arrangements of keys and which others loved (or loathed) their typewriters.Tony Allan is the editor of Time-Life's Global History and the author of the twenty-volume Myth and Humanity series.
