Sid Meier's Memoir!: A Life in Computer Games by Sid Meier is an autobiography spanning Sid Meier’s career in the video game industry, starting from the birth of computer games and development on early computers. Then gaining partners and growing the business while producing newer and more modern games, selling more than 51 million copies in his career with his famous Sid Meier’s Civilization. In addition to the history of video games, Sid Meier also shares his perspective and opinions on the industry. This book was intriguing showing the beginning of a hobby I partake in often, it is a deep and in-depth dive into the process and development of video games and while interesting it almost lost my interest at some points due to the in-depth description of business and programming. If you are an avid fan of the Civilization games, the history of video games, or the design and programming of video games I highly recommend this book
