The Alphabet
John Sachs
There is much that could be criticised in this book: it is
repetitive, confusingly structured initially, sometimes
annoyingly populist and written for an American readership (fair
enough, the writer is American but it makes for irritating
reading at times). On the other hand, the story of how our
alphabet was created 2000 years ago and has developed since is
fascinating.
