Shady Characters: The Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols, & Other Typographical Marks by Keith Houston

5.0

A book about the history of (obscure and not so obscure) punctuation marks? Believe me, it's not as boring as you might think at first. This book is an interesting look into the origins of some of the punctuation marks you use every day ( and even some you might never have heard of). You won't think of writing the same way again once you've finished.
