In Farmall 100 Years, award-winning tractor author, photographer, and historian Randy Leffingwell and renowned tractor historian Robert N. Pripps offer a richly illustrated and detailed book that captures the full story of the iconic tractors. Beautiful, contemporary photos and rare historical images accompany in-depth analyses of all the milestone tractors.

The engaging text examines engineering developments, their historical context, key figures, and model variations. From predecessors such as the McCormick-Deerings and International Motor Cultivator to the first Farmalls, the best-selling Letter Series unveiled in the 1930s, the entry-market Cub launched in 1947, the Hundred Series introduced in 1954, and beyond, Farmall 100 Years provides a unique perspective on a farming giant.

Leffingwell and Pripps even include twenty-first-century tractors from Case IH, New Holland, and Steyr, including new versions of Farmall. By 1947, Farmall had built over 1 million tractors. Amazingly, many are still in use today as collector vehicles as well as working farm tractors.

Farmall 100 Years brings the story to life in the ultimate tribute to these enduring machines.
