Paper: Paging Through History by Mark Kurlansky

Title:  Paper: Paging Through History

Author: Mark Kurlansky

Review:

Paper is so common nowadays that we don’t think much about it.  But historically it was in short supply.  For a time it was only made from rags, and not until later was it made from wood pulp. 
But just try to imagine the world without paper.  The mind boggles.  Page through history with this book about paper, and you’ll appreciate it even more.
