Ask HN: Books to recommend about early tech history (late 90s)?

[yesimapro]

Just got finished reading e-Boys - I learned a lot about the early days at Webvan, e-Bay, Benchmark and the overall vibe of the dot com boom in the 90's. Although the book did not cover them in extreme detail, it offered a good primer that urged me to probe for more elsewhere.

Are there any other books you guys would recommend (similar to eBoys) that cover early Dot Com history?

"The PayPal Wars". Also see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PayPal_Mafia

"Founders at Work: Stories of Startups' Early Days"

"Project Code Rush", a 1h documentary (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q7FTjhvZ7Y)

The PayPal Wars looks like my next read... Recently, I have been enamored by the Mafia - Thanks !

I'm hurt that the late 90s is considered "early tech history".

LOL, I was born in '95 - Kinda seems like ground zero for what the current tech/VC atmosphere is today.

I am happy to take on whatever recommendations you have for learning more (no matter the time period) :)
