My latest book is PiDP-10 'a mainframe in my living room'

This book is about the PiDP-10 kit and the three operating systems that you can run on it. You can learn what it was like to operate a terminal, control the computer, write programs in computer languages such as LISP, FORTRAN, COBOL, ALGOL, or BASIC, and, of course, play some of the computer games that became the classics, which spawned the games we play today. The book is intended for beginners, like me. I went from looking at the Blinkin Lights display with no idea what to do next, to information overload from all of the available documents, websites, and videos. Nothing is stopping you from downloading the software to your trusty Raspberry Pi and using the software. It is fully functional without the PiDP-10 hardware.
