Enjoyed reading & looking at old tractors. A few I drove or seen when growing up

Great Photo Retrospective

Drawing on a treasure trove of excellent-quality photographs, the author assembled a fine look back at then-new equipment in the fields, doing the work they were designed for.

Great Booklet

Showed a lot of back in the say of what it took to be a farmer back when tractors were coming out. Very good pictures.

Not impressed

I was quite disappointed with volume 4, knowing how much I liked the first 3 volumes. Basing this publication on a variety early tractor models from a list of manufacturers just missed the mark in my opinion. I really enjoyed the old photographs in volumes 1-3, and the details of the background that tell their own story. If you like to see old tractors plowing, you'll like volume 4.
