From the Back Cover
The history of tractors offers an amazing insight into the story of farming in the twentieth century. From the advent of the internal combustion engine to diesel engines and four-wheel-drive systems, Farm Tractors traces the manifold developments of this key tool that has irrevocably changed the face of the agricultural world.All of the major manufacturers are represented, with a diverse array of models, both groundbreaking successes and short-lived experiments. They include the 1912 Fairbanks and the Morse Type N, which was started using a lighted match; a selection of Henry Ford's early Fordson tractors (including the Trackson crawler units); and the tiny Waterloo Bronco, designed in the 1950s to take advantage of the postwar boom in market gardens, as well as dozens of models from such makers as John Deere, Farmall, Lanz, Porsche, Case, Massey, and many others.With detailed profiles of many classic tractors, including precision artwork and cutaway illustrations alongside close-up details, and featuring specification tables and make and model histories for key vehicles, Farm Tractors comprises one of the most comprehensive works in its field and will have great appeal to everyone from farm and vehicle enthusiasts to students of industrial technology and agricultural history. (9 x 12, 176 pages, color photos, b&w photos, color illustrations)
