Not many pictures

Not enough pictures. Bought this for 85-year old grandpa. Writing is so small. Was looking more for a book with lots of pictures.

Picture and Stats on old Tractors

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2012

Verified Purchase

I bought this for an "Okie" friend who moved to Arkansas. He loves old tractors and commented a few weeks ago that he wished he had a book that had pictures of some from his childhood.... (probably during the dust bowl) LOL
He really appreciated this book, even though it was "used". It had no flaws from it previous owner, and I am happy with the seller. It arrived promptly, and was as advertized.

was in good condition, but not as good as Id have liked. Had a few pages folded and back cover was a bit creased. It was a gift for my dad and he loved it, so worth the purchase for me.

Still my favorite "tractor book"

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2011

This is the first "tractor book" I bought, and it remains my favorite. Well-researched and well-written chapters on John Deere, Caterpillar, Allis-Chalmers, Case, IH, Ford, Massey, White, and "the Orphan Tractors." Not a definitive study of any one brand, but a very good general history of each brand covered. Great photos, mostly of less-common types like high-crops or orchard models.

The History Of Tractors With Great Photographs

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2005

This is a nice book for persons involved in farming and tractors. It is an attractive large-size full-color book that is an excellent coffee table book. If you have been involved with tractors over the years, you will certainly enjoy this book's look back on the American Farm Tractors over the years.

Barnes & Noble republished this book in 2002 with the very same cover. Whether you locate the original 1991 edition or the more recent 2002 edition you will have essentially the same book.

This book will definately be a "keeper".

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2002

Bought for my husband for Christmas since he comes from a few generations of tractor owners this book was the perfect gift for him to gather his son on his lap and share stories and pictures. We wish it had more pictures of more classic oldies. The brief histories given on the pictured tractors are pretty good though. I bought this book second hand, in great condition and plan on saving to give to our son when he has children so he can pass along the stories.
