What is Classic Oliver Tractors: History, Models, Variations & Specifications 1855-1976 (tractor Legacy Series) about?

<p>James Oliver sold his first “chilled” plow in 1870--“chilled” because the cast iron was cooled quickly with water to harden the metal and strengthen the plow.&nbsp; And when Oliver Chilled Plow Works merged with the Hart-Parr Company in 1929, the might of capital, expertise, and engineering resources came together to create one of the most successful and revered small tractor manufacturers of all time.&nbsp; This book follows the Oliver tractor from its inception through its development over the years, until the last model rolled off the assembly line in 1976.&nbsp; A story of entrepreneurship and industry, of machinery and American know-how, this illustrated history captures the spirit of Oliver farm equipment as its tractors and crawlers, hay balers and threshers turned American farmland to gold.&nbsp; Throughout, brilliant color photographs and historical images bring the story of the Oliver tractor vividly and vibrantly to life.</p>
