Forget about Einstein's tortured derivation. There's no reason
to base special relativity on history's first published paper on
the topic or to fixate on the clumsiness of anyone's baby steps.
The best derivation of the special relativity available anywhere
to date in terms of sheer elegance, physical intuitiveness and
mathematical simplicity is given here:

Anyone who thinks that Einstein's Electrodynamics of Moving
Bodies presents an admirable derivation of special relativity
is mathematically insane.
