This book covers the tractor models that have stood out, from the
early twentieth century to the present day, either because of their
innovative design and engineering features or because they set new
standards in reliability and popularity. Beginning with the
background to the development of the first tractor, Jonathan
Whitlam takes us on a fascinating journey through a variety of
tractor types, both large and small, and their stand-out features.
This includes the Fordson F, the first mass produced tractor which
set the pattern for future tractor design; the Field Marshall,
which introduced diesel engines for tractors; the Ferguson TE20
with its novel three-point linkage; the Massey Ferguson 35 and
later 135, which stand out for sheer popularity; and the John Deere
3640, with its powerful six-cylinder engine and advanced cab. The
book also describes the computerised systems featured in many of
the latest tractors. Accompanied by superb colour photography of
all the tractors, this book has something for every tractor and
agricultural machinery enthusiast.
