Fiat Tractors from 1919 to the present. Ediz. illustrata (Trattori e veicoli speciali) - Tapa dura

Il primo trattore agricolo costruito da Fiat fu presentato alle autorità civili e militari di Torino nel 1918 e commercializzato l'anno dopo dalla Federazione dei consorzi agrari. Iniziò così, 90 anni fa, l'attività della Fiat nel settore agricolo, oggi ai vertici mondiali con il marchio CNH-Case-New Holland. Il volume illustra, avvalendosi di documenti fotografici originali, le origini e lo sviluppo dell'intera produzione, affrontando le vicende tecniche ed umane che hanno portato alla realizzazione di oltre 500 modelli dal 1918 ad oggi. Oltre 250 pagine, corredate da un repertorio iconografico in bianco e nero e a colori, raccontano e illustrano questa affascinante storia, sino ad oggi ancora poco nota. Un'opera per collezionisti, appassionati o semplici curiosi. Presentazione di Giuseppe Gavioli.
