Description
Back within the 1830s, who was once a young blacksmith from Vermont, about to make his mark on American history? John Deere, that’s who!
Who moved to Illinois, where farmers were struggling to wade through the thick, wealthy soil they referred to as gumbo? Who tinkered and tweaked and tested until he invented a steel plow that sliced into the prairie simple as you please?
Long before the primary tractor, who changed farming ceaselessly? John Deere, that’s who!
Beautiful illustrations―including spectacular landscapes―reflect the period of time and convey John Deere’s remarkable story to life.
