Book 19 of 2026: Apple: The First 50 Years by David Pogue.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Excellent history of Apple, from its earliest days to today. Covers the ups and downs, with a ton of neat stories about the genesis of a whole slew of technologies, many of which I hadn’t really realized Apple’s involvement with. Admittedly, something of a niche subject (even if it’s a fairly large niche these days), but if you’re an Apple fan, it’s well worth the read. And as a long-time Apple user who got started with Apple IIs back in elementary school and got my first Mac (a Mac Classic) in 1990, it was a lot of fun to revisit and get more of the background behind the many things I remembered.
