An image of the cover of the book "The Story of Writing: Alphabets, Hieroglyphs, & Pictograms"

Interesting, full of pictures, but it got ponderous. Weirdly long, because it’s basically a picture book, but with a lot of text, so you spend a lot of time starting and ending sections, and looking at captions. You don’t really get in a narrative flow. Almost a coffee table book, really.
