A review by velocipedia
The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage: The (Mostly) True Story of the First Computer by Sydney Padua
funny
informative
slow-paced
No strong opinions on this one, but pleased with myself for suppressing the DNF impulse after seeing *another* chunk of endnotes. Padua's voice is readable and quite funny, and her illustrations are engaging and emotive. The format of the book is maybe a little disjointed, but you can tell that it's a passion project, and who am I to begrudge a dork her obsession?
