Just read the book cover to cover last night, and I gotta say, it is a fantastic read. It explains a lot of the mergers and how tractor companies came about and has some fantastic history and plenty of great photos. I also found out that the first gasoline engine developed in America was done by John Charter in Sterling, Illinois, which is about 30 miles from me! I'd definitely recommend it.

I just took a look on amazon and they don't have the book right now but I did find one of mine (The Ultimate American Farm Tractor Data Book: Nebraska Test Tractors 1920-1960 (Farm Tractor Data Books) (Paperback)
by Lorry Dunning (Author))

The price for two used ones was $260 and $320 Boy I'm putting mine up a glass case for protection as its like new condition. Walt PS I sure didn't pay that much for it.
