First I must warn you that once one starts down this path you'll never be able 
to turn back!

I highly recommend most, if not all, of the books at Lindsay Publications!! 
Google that name and you will find their web page.  Pick up a copy of 
"Wagner's Chemical Technology 1872". It was a fine year.

You must also get "Modern Gas Producers" from http://www.woodgas.com
I'm only on page 75 and have had it for about 4 months (lacking time). You 
read a page and you have to think about what you just read for a day or two. 
It will never all sink in. Interesting book that is packed with info. It 
needs to be remastered into a $100 coffee-table book. Your friends would be 
entertained by just the pictures. I can hear them now; what the hell is this?
