The book I first read when I started spread trading was "The Complete Guide to Spread Trading" by Keith Schap. I found it to be quite good. Unfortunately, it is out of print! On Amazon, sellers are trying to flog it for ridiculous prices.
I guess, if you can find it 2nd hand for a reasonable price then you're in luck. Just something to be on the lookout for.
I have my personal blog about trading calendar spreads: futurespreads.blogspot.com & I'll start a thread here in a few days duplicating posts from my blog.
I've always been a bit gunshy about "seasonals" ever since the WSJ published an expose on the dismal record that Jake Bernstein's book on seasonals showed. This was a long time ago. Seems too easy and obvious to me.
I got email from SeasonAlgo (analytical software for futures spread traders) and they provide full free access for 1month - they celebrate 1st anniversary. Use this link, sign up or sign in and then you will get automaticly full access.
