Ada Lovelace, daughter of Byron, friend of Babbage, author of the first computer program... this is your life.
I've been drawn to this book to learn more about Lovelace because she seemed to be way ahead of her time, having coded before there were machines capable of running code. Having just started it, I'm now just as interested in learning about that general period of history, including the emergence of the first celebrity (Byron).
Was worried that it might be dry history, but it reads well.
