Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book offers a first-hand, on-the-ground account of the experiences of farmers using farm tractors from 1900 to 1915. The author spent years visiting farms, meeting the farmers, and recording their experiences to provide a balanced account of this transformative period. The author found that the arrival of tractors on the prairies was not met with universal acclaim. The initial enthusiasm was tempered by the technical challenges, limited utility, and high costs associated with early models. The arrival of the more reliable kerosene-powered tractors was a turning point, offering better fuel economy and reliability. Farmers were also starting to appreciate the benefits tractors brought, extending their work capacity, and enabling them to cultivate more land than ever before. Despite these advantages, the average farmer did not see tractors as a replacement for horses but as an expansion of their capabilities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
