    A couple things I read this year I can vouch for:

    • The Decipherment of Linear B; A history of the decipherment of the Myceanean language; part linguistics, part code breaking.
    • Ignition!: An informal history of liquid rocket propellants; Fucking hilarious, full of insane stories about the early history of rocketry and the many characters involved.
