Product Description
This book is an introduction to all things Caterpillar. This photographic essay spans 1925 to present, emphasizing the company's modern state-of-the-art equipment, and is written by one of the company's most prolific historians. Starting with an explanation of the manufacturer's origins with Holt and Best, it quickly launches into the fun part--the equipment itself:
•Track-type tractors (including Challengers & track loaders)
•Motorgraders
•Scrapers (both pulled and powered)
•Haulers (including rear and bottom dumps)
•Wheel loaders and dozers (including compactors, backhoes, and skid-steer)
•Hydraulic excavators
As a part of the new Gallery series from MBI Publishing Company, the book is filled with dozens of photos for an entertaining and informative read, and is bound in a flexi-binding for durability and readability.

Not just another Caterpillar book! This is the ultimate reference on Caterpillar crawler tractors. Every tractor covered in detail from the origins of the Holt and Best crawler tractors to the introduction of the D9. Background stories include: choosing Caterpillar yellow, and the first diesels. Spectacular color photographs by Eric C. Orlemann are all new, never before published. TABLES LIST EVERY MODEL OF CRAWLER TRACTOR WITH DATES, SERIAL NO. PREFIXES, AND PRODUCTION NUMBERS UP TO THE D9. Never before published in such detail or accuracy (Military models included). Final chapter brings tractors up to date including the Challengers. A superb reference book for every Caterpillar enthusiast.
