John Deere Tractor Legacy Book
"Despite many skeptics and cynics, John Deere, a blacksmith from Vermont, changed the agricultural landscape in 1837 by producing a polished, self-scouring plow made of high-grade steel.
This authoritative volume includes a biography of John Deere, plus ground-breaking, never-before-published material - from Deere engineers and historians such as Wayne Broehl, Harold Brock, Orrin Miller, and others - including insider accounts of the development of the Waterloo Boy and the two-cylinder tractors, and how the work that Deere did for the U.S. Army in World War II helped it to become the number-one tractor manufacturer in the world. Coverage of Deere's other farm and nonfarm related machinery is also included.
A timeline, plus images from the Deere archives and noted tractor photographer Ralph W Sanders round out this account of the legacy that is Deere & Company."
This is a Deere & Company officially licensed publication. 9 1/4 x 12 1/4 inches and 255 pages. Hard cover with dust jacket. English language. Dated 2003. ISBN-10: 0-89658-619-7

The fine print (Revised 09/01/2009):
We take a lot of time to be as careful, accurate, and as descriptive as we can with our item Descriptions and pictures. We may get wordy sometimes. If "A picture is worth a thousand words", then a picture or two plus a thousand words (or less hopefully) is worth more. We've taken the time to provide you with accurate and truthful descriptions and pictures. Please take the time to read and understand it thoroughly.
We have other items listed which may be of interest to you also and we are adding new items almost daily so check us often. And be sure to look in our store for more items of interest.
