A complete overview of the evolution of the farm tractor! 100 manufacturers in alphabetical order, from Allis-Chalmers to Zetor 304 pages packed with model details, manufacturer history, new developments, special features, and extracts from sales fliers Over 400 photos and illustrations of tractor models from the 1930s through 2000 Updated and extended replacement for the author's earlier book Fifty Years of Farm Tractors

By the end of the twentieth century there were some half-million tractors on British farms—more machines than people to drive them!
Brian Bell's encyclopedic book traces the evolution of the farm tractor—from the days of starting handles and pan seats to the current 4-wheel drive machines with air-conditioned cabs and computer management systems. Special attention is given to developments of the classic period from the 1950s to the 1990s.
Seventy Years of Farm Tractors is arranged alphabetically by manufacturer from Allis-Chalmers to Zetor, one hundred marques in total! These are all machines to be found on British farms irrespective of their country of manufacture.
This informative text gives a complete overview: Brian runs concisely through the histories of the companies and their major models, illustrated with a wealth of photographs and extracts from sales literature. He adds some special features on items such as hydraulic systems and cold-starting aids, and includes a glossary and full index.
This updated and expanded book replaces the author's earlier book Fifty Years of Farm Tractors. Many of the photographs are new and the text has been brought up to date to include developments of the early twenty-first century.
Covered manufacturers include: Allis-Chalmers Dutra Ebro Gunsmith Hanomag John Deere Kendall Loyd Mailam Ota Paramount Russell Same Tym Unimog Zetor ...and many more!
