[AT] International Harvester Book

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

While my book is old, I think it is a reprint. I recommend that book to 
anyone who enjoys early mechanization of farming. It’s a bit of a history 
lesson involved. Face it, they were one of the biggest companies in the 
world, one of 4 the US govt busted for being a trust. How can you go from 
that big to flat broke is quite a read. Some of their union agreements way 
back in the early days practically handed over the ag and industrial markets 
to Deere and Cat in the 70's.
