Tractors From John Deere to Lamborghini
Tractors From John Deere to Lamborghini

<p>Tractors provides a vivid pictorial exploration of tractors through the ages, beginning with John Froelich’s invention – produced locally by the Waterloo Gasoline Traction Engine Company – through the first mass-produced models, Henry Ford’s Fordson and the Massey-Ferguson MF35, up to the latest driverless tractor, the John Deere 8R 410, which allows farmers to plot exact paths using a GPS-configured app. In between the book shows many of the world’s best-known models in action, including the New Holland Agriculture, Fendt, Valtra and Lamborghini. The evolution of the tractor in the late 19th century with the development of the Froelich tractor in Iowa in 1892 revolutionized farming, providing farmers with the means to combine the power of the internal combustion engine with the latest farming methods. Farming was never the same again. In the 1940s, hydraulic systems were developed to make tractors more valuable and comfortable, adjustable seats and headlights were installed, and the modern tractor became a reality. Illustrated with 180 photographs, Tractors is a pictorial celebration of these essential machines through the ages.</p>

When Tractors Replaced Neighbors - One Farm's Story of the 1920s
When Tractors Replaced Neighbors - One Farm's Story of the 1920s

<p><b>You might think you know what life was like on an American farm in the early 1900s. But do you really?</b> <p>For generations, farming depended on shared labor. Threshing rings, borrowed teams, and hired hands made survival possible. In the early 1920s, that system began to crack. Gasoline tractors from Avery, Hart-Parr, International Harvester, Case, and Fordson promised independence and control. They also brought debt, breakdowns, and choices that could not be taken back. <p><i>When Tractors Replaced Neighbors</i> follows one Midwestern farmer as he risks everything on a machine meant to replace both horses and people. As the work changes, so do the relationships that once held the farm community together. The story traces the most disruptive change in agricultural history through the daily decisions of one farm family and the neighbors forced to adapt alongside them. <p>Based on real events, real machines, and careful historical research, this is a grounded story about work, risk, and the moment farming stopped being shared labor and became something done alone.</p>
