Pictures and text chronicle this vastly popular series of general-purpose tractors with hard-to-find information on design and development of the models, serial numbers, codes, and production numbers. Oscar H. Will III is an accomplished writer and photographer when it comes to International Harvesters. He wrote the book Payline: International Harvester’s Construction Equipment and his articles have appeared in many IH magazines, including Red Power. He lives in Scranton, Kansas, with his wife. Todd Markle has always been an International Harvester fan. His family owned a dealership, where he worked from grade school up until 1993. He is a member of the IH collectors club, as well as the Nittany Antique Machinery Association of central Pennsylvania. He lives in Spring Mills, Pennsylvania, with his wife and son. This is his first book. The authors chronicle changes and improvements and provide hard-to-find information on design and development of the models, serial numbers, codes, production numbers, and anything else an F series enthusiast could want to know. Indispensable to anyone restoring a Farmall F series tractor, the book also provides a clear and fascinating picture of an icon of agricultural history and the machinery of Americana. The stock market crashed and the countrys fields turned to dust, and the tractor, that workhorse of American agriculture, was one more casualty. But in the face of disaster, International Harvester kept improving on its successful Farmall tractor and finally arrived at the F series, which includes some of the finest and best-loved tractors of all time. These are the tractors that pulled American farmers out of the Great Depression. Archival and modern color photographs and detailed text follow the series from the F-12, F-14, and the vastly popular F-20 that replaced the Farmall Regular to huge machines like the F-30, which was better-suited to breaking the Great Plains.
