Amen brother! I just got a copy of Vol. three of _Menlo Park Reminiscences_
by Francis Jehl to complete my set (great technical history of Thomas
Edison's laboratory written by one of Edison's assistants) and I scored a
good looking copy of _IBM's Early Computers_ by Bashe, et al. from a
reasonably priced book dealer in N. Cal.
I could possibly go broke with ABE if I started hunting for the early
radio, TV and computer books I've been wanting.
"Recommended".
