Very good book on the history of the color computer. I enjoyed the stories about third party companies, developers and the community of enthusiasts.

Chronicling an important 80s microcomputer history

The latter 70s and decade of the 80s was a Golden Age of the personal micro-computer. This book does admirably at chronicling the Tandy Color Computer - an important player in that era, still with many fans to this day. To those fans, and computer history buffs, here is your book.
