Synopsis
This is the first in a new series of very competitively priced tractor books from Voyageur Press, the publisher which virtually invented the concept of the gift book for tractor enthusiasts. This is a photographic survey of some of the greatest tractors built in the last century. Each full colour photograph in the book is accompanied by a detailed caption. The book contains the usual Voyageur Press mix of superb colour photographs, rare archival images and extracts from brochures produced by the various manufacturers to promote and sell their tractors. All of this at a very affordable price. The book covers most famous North American built machines and many famous European marques are also represented. Organised chronologically, it also provides a simple way for relative newcomers to this fascinating area, to understand the history of farm tractors and how the machines evolved over the years. Among the marques covered in book are, John Deere, Ford, Farmall, Massey Harris, Case, Oliver, Allis Chalmers and Caterpillar.
