# The Secret Guide to Computers

By Russ Walter.

"The Secret Guide to Computers" by Russ Walter is a self-published computer guide first written in 1972. Beginning as a seventeen-page primer on BASIC programming, it has evolved through thirty-four editions into a comprehensive seven-hundred-page manual covering hardware, software, theory, and practice. Walter aims to teach readers everything needed to become computer experts. Remarkably, he provides his personal phone number for round-the-clock questions. Later editions expand beyond computing to include "Tricky Living," offering guidance on health, language, arts, and more. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
