Maybe not too far off in the future either.... :) http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/markesan-wisconsin-austin-frederick/1107762341?ean=9780738582504&itm=1&usri=markesan" rel="nofollow - http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/markesan-wisconsin-austin-frederick/1107762341?ean=9780738582504&itm=1&usri=markesan  ------------- "Better By Design" |

Say I did do one on Allis-Chalmers. What would be of more interest. One of JUST the Agricultural Division or an overall snapshot of AC? What would be a bigger hit. Just for future reference. ------------- "Better By Design" |

Austin, I would say to get started, cover the AG division, in detail, first. Then maybe a second book covering the whole Corp?
Can you give us a quick summary of your current book? ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |

If you click on the link I posted above the picture...it will take you to Barnes&Noble. If you scroll down on that page it will get an overview of the book and I think you can take a peak inside the book. I should also mention that Allis-Chalmers did make an appear in the Markesan book. Wilde Implement was our AC dealership :) I got a good pic of theinside and the outside. ------------- "Better By Design" |
