The Caterpillar Century The Caterpillar Century
by Eric Orlemann
Now an industry giant and a legend among American
manufacturers, Caterpillar first got its name from Holt Manufacturing
Companys remarkable tractor creation of 1905. What followed was
the Caterpillar century, an era of engineering revolutions and
world-changing earthmovers. Eric Orlemann serves as tour guide
through this time of American mechanical know-how and muscle,
offering us a rare close-up look at the technology of Caterpillars most
important equipment innovations, then and now. Packed with
contemporary photographs, archival images, and information on
state-of-the-art equipment design, Caterpillar Century traces the
evolution of this icon of industry from its emergence in 1905 to its
making of modern day heavy-equipment marvels and development
of future design prototypes.
