Title: Ahrens-Fox: The Rolls-Royce of fire engines
Description: History of Ahrens-Fox Fire Engine Company of Cincinnati, which had its origins in 1852, but the primary focus of this book is the motor fire apparatus era, 1911-1977, including biographies of Ahrens-Fox employees, corporate history, and photos (all B&W) of many different types of Ahrens-Fox fire engines. This book went through 4 printings, the first in hard-cover (only 500 printed), the other 3 (1000 per printing) in paperback editions. It is now out of print, but does occasionally come up for sale online, with prices ranging from $100 to $200 in paperback, and $300 to $450 for the very rare hardcover edition.
