This exclusive history of the pride of Moline, Illinois, explores how Big Green has evolved from their early days of forging plows to the modern era of computer-aided design and assembly. Authors Beemer and Peterson were granted rare access to John Deere's closely guarded design, manufacturing and testing facilities. The information they gathered was assembled into this one-of-a-kind photohistory featuring previously unpublished information on the ingenuity behind the world's most recognizable name in tractors. Never-before-seen photographs of John Deere design and manufacturing processes are accompanied by shots of the finished products. Chet Peterson and Rod Beemer have collaborated on several tractor titles for MBI, including last season's John Deere New Generation Tractors and Ford Tractor Implements. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
