This rollicking ride into machine history follows the innovators, entrepreneurs, and hucksters who transformed our world with farm machines of all colors. Starting with the turn-of-the-century visionaries who saw that four wheels and a motor could replace for the horse, the book moves swiftly through key early developments to cover the power farming movement of the latter part of the 20th Century–a time when major manufacturers lagged and independent builders and farmers began creating their own machines with a pencil drawing and a welder. This hard-cover book is approximately 8" by 10". ** This book is the SAME book as the TRACTOR with the red cover. They just have different covers.
