OK but could have been better.
It's a good book for the price, but is below the standards of some of Klancher's previous books. Red Tractors and Red Combines were truly books of compelling interest. Lee seems to have put less effort into this book, so you can expect to get a little less out of it - just my take on it. Parts of it seem to me to have been written by the John Deere advertising/public relations department.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
