 The collector in our family loves this book! Sep 06, 1999
I bought this book as a gift for my father, who collects antique farm tools and tractors, has done his own restorations, and goes to antique shows all the time. I have no higher praise than this: when he settles in for the night, he gets in his favorite chair and opens that book. He may read it for hours, or browse a few pages, but it's his favorite reading material.

A Must Have Book on Agricultural Machinery & Mechanization Nov 08, 1999
By Leo Landis
C. H. Wendel's Encyclopedia of American Farm Implements & Antiques is a first-rate work. The illustrations are exceptional, and the scope impressive. Wendel documents the machinery of manufacturing giants and the lesser-known manufacturers from the middle nineteenth century to the middle twentieth century. If you need to identify a machine or manufacturer Wendel's book ought to be your first source.

 Most authoritative guide to old farming equipment EVER ! Aug 29, 1999
By Elliott L. Domans, Jr.
Once again, Charles Wendel shows that he is the undisputed master author of obscure antique farm implements and tractors.Wendel shows old sales brochure engravings of everything from hog oilers to corn shellers and hay loft pulleys. From feed grinders to hay tedders, and EVERYTHING in between.A MUST READ if you want a guide to antique farm implements from the 1800's through the 1950's.

I looked at this book and really liked it Aug 15, 1999
It's hard to find info on old farm machinery. I especially liked the close-up illustrations of wooden windmills
