Books are an amazing way to store knowledge. It allows you to record your thoughts for years to come. If you’re lucky, they are preserved for many, many, years. This is on my mind because I am now the owner of several books from the past millennium. I think reading really old books helps to expand your mind in a different way than books today do. These old “reads” not only give you the knowledge inside them, but they make you think in the way people did a hundred years ago. They were written in the time of inventors and innovators. Today everything is about electronics and making things more compact. Back then, America was still a young nation. We were still fighting the Indians, learning about some strange inventions called the “telephone” and “automobile”. People were real, they cared about things, and this is reflected in their writing.
