Harold Ypma November 8, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was searching on Amazon one day for books and put my Dad's name into the search field. To my surprise, four books popped up written by Randy Leffingwell with mention of my Dad in them. My Dad passed away in 2005 after a very courageous battle with cancer. I purchased these books immediately so that I could read what he had written about my Dad. Anyone that had the opportunity to have met my Dad always had a lasting impression of him. So, thank you Randy for remembering a wonderful & knowledgeable man.
Ford tractors early to 60's September 25, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Most of the info in the book is for the early years to the early 60's, very little info for later models. Early years is covered very well and informs on the design and process of getting the tractors to the customers.
A first-rate tour of Ford tractor history and evolution. February 10, 1999 25 out of 27 found this review helpful
Lavishly embellished with archive photos and drawings, Ford Farm Tractors gives the Ford enthusiast copius information about the design and development of the Ford tractor line. From Ford's early attempts at traction power to the latest New Holland offerings, the author provides enough details to satisfy most information-hungry Ford lovers. Full-color photographs of collector tractors, working tractors and implements provide ample details for restorers and hobbyists alike. There are some minor editing details, such as a few mis-captioned pictures and the inclusion of several previously published photos that detract from this otherwise beautiful, useful and welcome addition to the tractor-enthusiast's library or coffee table.
