Tech columnist David Pogue has released Apple: The First 50 Years, a comprehensive 600-page history published ahead of Apple's 50th anniversary on April 1. The hardcover edition retails for $50 but is currently on sale for around $35 on Amazon. Pogue interviewed 150 key figures including Steve Wozniak, John Sculley, and Jony Ive to document Apple's journey from garage startup to the world's most valuable company.

The book features 350 full-color photos, a map of key Apple locations in Cupertino, California, employee profiles, and lesser-known stories about the company's culture. Pogue, a CBS Sunday Morning correspondent who previously wrote for The New York Times and Macworld, promises new facts that correct historical records. The book is structured in digestible sections, allowing readers to easily navigate topics of interest.

For Apple enthusiasts and history buffs alike, this volume serves as the ultimate encyclopedia of the company's first five decades. Even longtime Apple observers report discovering new details, making it a valuable collectible for the hardcover edition.
