The good book

(quoted from post at 21:15:39 01/13/16) My bil retired a few years ago after working for Kraft foods for 45 years. He grew up a farm boy and inherited his Dads two old WC Allis. He just loves driving tractor. So for the last few years he has been doing all my tillage work. He refuses to take any pay so I give him little tokens of appreciation (fresh eggs from my chickens, gas card for to and from, pig for butchering) I know it is only a fraction of what he is worth to me. I told you that so I can tell you this. I want to get him a book on history of Allis Chalmers. What is the best book out there that would be a good read for him??
