Speaking of books,
has anyone seen the book "We Built our own Computers" by A.B. Holt,
Cambridge Univ. Press, published about 1966.
Yes, I've got it here (bought as part of a $3 per bag haul from a charity
book sale a month ago).
You are right about year and publisher, but the "author" was Bolt, not
Holt - it is part of a series called School Mathematics Project Handbooks
and A.B Bolt actually lists himself as "supervisor" of 6 Exeter School 6th
form boys who actually wrote the book.
It describes a binary adder, a NIM machine, a noughts and crosses machine
....
I see a few other replies, so that it is not all that rare :(
- but what exactly did you want to know for?
