| Synopsis: |
This work traces the changes in powered equipment for use in the garden since 1945. It covers machinery for the many and varied gardening tasks, including tilling the soil, mowing lawns and hedge-cutting. The book draws on manufacturers' catalogues. A substantial proportion of the book is devoted to the small tractors which transformed work on smallholdings and larger gardens. The mechanized equipment used to make cultivations less back-breaking is covered and there is a section devoted to the use of the lawn mower. Numerous companies have been involved in all these developments and brief histories are given of some of the more notable ones, including Atco, Hayter, Qualcast and Ransomes. |
