British Tractors 1945-1965 (Hardback) - Stuart Gibbard

From Allis-Chalmers to  Vickers, Stuart Gibbard has prepared an A-Z of the tractors made in  Britain during the two decades of insatiable demand and great  technical development 1945-65.

He deals not only with  the products of British manufacturers such as Ferguson, David Brown  and Nuffield, but also with the American makers which established  plants in Britain to overcome post-war import restrictions. Among the  famous names here are International Harvester, Massey-Harris and  Minneapolis-Moline.

A unique feature of  this book is that the 400 images are all from manufacturers’ sales  brochures and publicity material. These give the flavour of the times  and highlight the features that the manufacturers were most keen to  promote.
