I see what you did there.One of the most interesting things about the history for me is that it often doesn't look like what we see in the fiction. Soft cloth/leather backpacks weren't really a thing pre-19th century, though there were backpacks with wooden frames or just wicker baskets that you wore on you back.Yeah, it's complicated to know how they started because the materials they are made of decomposed long ago, plus they were probably invented independently in multiple places.We are, though we haven't worked out the details yet. I think we probably want to get out one more (which will be Cart and Wagon) and that should give us a good 96 page print book.</blockquote>
