About This Item
From the Introduction: "If your nerves have not tingled to the smell of steam and hot cylinder oil - if your blood has not raced with the rhythmic chuf-chuff of a steam traction engine under load - you have not fully lived. But cheers!
You yet may live.
These nearly-forgotten sensual delights can now be yours at any of the many steam threshing jamborees up and down our land where old settlers meet, old threshermen thresh, and the shout still echoes across the land..."
Obviously, this book is about threshing machines and steam engines.
Poor condition. NO COVER. The pages in this book feel like only slightly better paper than newsprint. The paper has some tanning. There is some edge and corner wear. There is a 1/2 inch closed tear on the front and stains on the back. There are many black & white photos.
Please use seller's photos as part of the description.
95 pages.
