    I found this Book on Amazon and I ordered it just because I like to learn/read vs. having my head buried in the computer. It's very Interesting and the pictures of the old stuff are amazing! If you like some old Chainsaw history, I recommend it. I think I paid $26.00 paper back.

    Prices of books are the real reason they don't sell as well. I well remember when one could find book for a dollar or less.

    Having spent 26 years of my life working with/running printing presses, I can understand why they aren't so cheap. The digital age has darn near killed the printed piece. :(

    I do agree, especially if I want to sit in my lazy boy and just read! Sometimes I hate being in front of a screen then the headache comes on... :headbang:
