The Farmall tractors of the first part of the 20th century brought the Industrial Revolution to the farm, playing a key role in America's transformation from a primarily agrarian society to an industrialized nation. In Farmall Tractors 1924-54: The Golden Age, author Lee Klancher weaves the story of the development of the Farmall with the story of the American farm in the early 20th century. The reader will discover the Farmall's role in America's early 20th century exodus from the farm and how those that stayed on the farm used modern equipment _ particularly the Farmall tractor _ and contemporary business practices to become the world's most efficient agricultural producers. This book details the history of Farmall tractors and includes information about the original Farmall, the Regular, to the merger of the International tractor division with Case in 1984 using color photographs of original and restored Farmalls.

To the tractor lover, there is something magical about the tractor in the pasture. It represents wisdom, strength, and former glory as the plower of soil, tender of crops, and the backbone of the nation. Much like the aging racehorse or the prize bull, after its working days are done, old tractors find resting spots on the edges of fields, alongside barns, or in the hedgerows.Today, these rusting piles of iron not only represent the memories of nostalgic farmers (past or present), they represent possibilities of restoration, rejuvenation, and new life as sparkling representations of an age gone by. This book captures scenes of old, retired tractors and couples them with the very sentiments that makes restoration an increasingly popular hobby.
