"<a class="bold" href="https://getreuer.info/posts/keyboards/alt-layouts/index.html">A guide to alt keyboard layouts</a>" by Pascal Getreuer is a good read if you're wondering what other good layouts are out there. In particular, he covers and explains some of the newest layouts that use modern metrics like redirects (back-and-forth), lateral stretches and disjointed bigrams. And he has a nice diagram showcasing the evolution of such layouts from 1873 to the present day; granted, only showing one analyzer's take on it, but a good one.

"<a class="bold" href="https://hackaday.com/2016/03/15/the-origin-of-qwerty/">The Origin Of QWERTY</a>" gives a credible and interesting account of how QWERTY came to be back in the late 1800s, with pretty pictures to boot. It's based, among other things, on the scientific paper "<a class="bold" href="https://repository.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2433/139379/1/42_161.pdf">On the Prehistory of QWERTY</a>" (PDF format). There are many myths around, and this paper deals with them. The actual design was much more about optimizing for U.S. telegraphists and a little about a compromise between inventors and producers; not, as is commonly believed, mainly a way of avoiding key jams!
