DennisThornton 4,769 #5 Posted July 23, 2015 Just got mine today! Great book! Lots of history about the company and the early year machines but doesn't get into the later years as much and nothing after 1985. Guess I'm still looking for a Wheel Horse encyclopedia!Still. I'm very glad to have this! High quality throughout! Pictures, copies of orders, paperwork not likely to be seen anywhere else.Well done!Dennis Thornton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TDF5G 2,069 #6 Posted July 28, 2015 Received my book yesterday. Can't wait to get a chance to read it and watch the DVD. I did browse through it and checked out many of the photos a couple of times last evening. It's an exceptionally well made book. Very high quality construction. Even signed by Micheal. Good job, Micheal, Thank You, Todd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DennisThornton 4,769 #9 Posted July 29, 2015 I know I'm singing praises for it but it not an all inclusive history of Wheel Horses, but rather it goes into depth as to how the company got started, covers a good bit of the early years and the the highlights until it was sold. Not a ton on the tractors themselves. I certainly think any avid collector or enthusiast needs to at least read it but you won't come away knowing all there is about Wheel Horse tractors. No where close!If you love Wheel Horses you will enjoy the read. You can always sell the book later if you want to... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DennisThornton 4,769 #11 Posted July 29, 2015 Afraid he died, Chris...But my point was not to expect to much from a 251 page book when it would take volumes to cover all about WHs. I liked your Emoticon and had to search for it!Oh my goodness! I just looked closer at your profile! You've been busy since 2010! Man! I want you to hang out more in the "Wheel Horse Identification Project" ! you should have no problems breaking 14,000 posts! Good ahead! I'll grab a pen and paper, meet you there and take notes!Dennis Thornton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
