AMERICAN FARM TRACTOR
This wonderfully nostalgic photo-history features technical drawings, archival photos and period ads, featuring manufacturers like John Deere, Allis-Chalmers, International Harvester, Ford, Massey-Ferguson, Oliver, Caterpillar and more. In 1900 there were more than 300 companies making – or claiming to make – farm tractors, By the end of the 1980s, there were just seven. This book looks at the birth of the industry, the shakedowns, acquisitions, mergers and changes and competition. Leffingwell found significant tractors to tell the story and photographed them on farms, in fields and around barns where they lived and did their work.
