This book is an introduction to all things
Caterpillar. This photographic essay spans 1925 to present,
emphasizing the company's modern state-of-the-art equipment, and is
written by one of the company's most prolific historians. Starting
with an explanation of the manufacturer's origins with Holt and
Best, it quickly launches into the fun part--the equipment itself:
Track-type tractors (including Challengers &
track loaders)
Motorgraders
Scrapers (both pulled and powered)
Haulers (including rear and bottom dumps)
Wheel loaders and dozers (including compactors,
backhoes, and skid-steer)
Hydraulic excavators
As a part of the new Gallery series from MBI
Publishing Company, the book is filled with dozens of photos for an
entertaining and informative read, and is bound in a flexi-binding for
durability and readability.
