An incredibly detailed book covering the history of video games. Note that this is only Volume 1 and stops at Pac-Man. The remainder of the book dives deep into things like the the first penny arcades, the creation and evolution of pinball, the first games to appear on mainframe computers, and so on, in great detail. It's really interesting, but reads more like a textbook and won't be for everyone.
