Description
This is the complete history of the tractor that changed farming--in America and around the world--forever. International Harvester began to experiment with tractors around 1905. It wasn't until the early 1920s that the company hit upon a successful model for the small-acreage farmer--and the Farmall tractor was born. The make went on to become the dominant tractor in America, selling more than a million models a year in the peak of the post-war boom.
Reviews"Farm Collector, "December 2005"If you are looking to settle in for a long winter's night with a beautifully photographed, carefully researched tractor book, this one should top your list. A solid addition to your library."
