Index, A History of the: A Bookish Adventure from Medieval Manuscripts to the Digital Age
by Dennis Duncan (Allen Lane, 2021); audiobook read by Neil Gardner (Tantor, 2022)
Well-researched and relatable beyond mere historical curiosity. Neil Gardner gives a jolly reading of the audiobook, which though weighed down by some laborious in-text examples (skimmable in other media), itself contains no index—a circumstance not covered in this otherwise comprehensive overview!
