"Daley Thompson’s Decathlon was a huge success and it was the first game to truly challenge the increasingly available joysticks. Many a player reckoned the game’s programmers, Paul Owens (Spectrum) and Dave Collier (C64), owed them the money for broken joysticks."

Spelling and Vocabulary for the Secretary
by Long, Tillett, and Woodbridge
for Katharine Gibbs School, New York

----------------------
After I became a proofreader, my dad gave me this reference book, which belonged to my grandmother who I never met. She traveled to New York to attend Katharine Gibbs School in the 1930s and later became a chief administrator at Duke Hospital.

She must have used this book quite often. It is worn and filled with her handwritten notes. I wish I could have connected with her as a fellow word nerd.
