Ballpoint: A Tale of Genius and Grit, Perilous Times, and the Invention that Changed the Way We Write
3 journalers for this copy...
I think this is the first time I read a micro-history book that is a translated work. In the beginning I find the writing a bit dry, but once I am used to the style - it does feel different from American writers' - I find the story engaging enough.
Will put this into the Books about Things bookbox.

Taking out of MaryZee's Biography of things. Thank you for sharing. I think it will be nice to read something different.
I never thought about how the ballpoint pen came into being. Every invention has a story.
