- Revolution in the Valley: From Andy Hertzfeld of the original Mac development team, this book covers the development of the Mac only as someone who actually was there could. If you just own one Apple history book, this should be it.
- Apple: The First 50 Years: Written by experienced journalist David Pogue, and including interviews with 150 former and current Apple employees, this is a full-color trek through Apple's life from birth to the present day.
- Steve Jobs: Walter Isaacson's classic biography of Steve Jobs based on two years worth of interviews with the man himself as well as "more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues." A must read.
- iWoz: No history of Apple would be complete without Steve Wozniak's viewpoint. This book provides a personal, firsthand account of Woz's role including numerous details about his single-handed creation of the first personal computer and some of his famous pranks, too.
- The Bite in the Apple: A Memoir of My Life with Steve Jobs: Written by Chrisann Brennan, the mother of Steve Jobs's first child (Lisa), this provides intimate, sometimes painful, insight into Steve Jobs as a person and the early days before and during Apple Computer.
- Fire in the Valley: The Making of the Personal Computer: Now on its third edition, this book focuses primarily around the clever hackers of the Homebrew Computer Club in the 1970s and the resulting companies that were born as a result, including Apple. However, it covers early "calculating engines" from the 1800s all the way to more modern computers, as well. An enjoyable read.
