| 520 | _a"John Deere's Steel Plow" by Edward C. Kendall is a historical account written in the mid-20th century that explores the invention and impact of John Deere's revolutionary steel plow. This book delves into the agricultural challenges faced by early American settlers on the prairie and discusses how the steel plow significantly improved farming efficiency in these regions. Through an analysis of historical context and evidence, it examines the materials and construction techniques used in one of the most crucial agricultural innovations of the 19th century. The narrative outlines the evolution of John Deere’s plow design, highlighting the initial struggles farmers faced with traditional wooden and cast-iron plows, which often clogged with the rich prairie soil. It details how Deere's plow incorporated a polished steel share, which effectively cut through the tough earth while preventing soil buildup, thus enabling farmers to cultivate land more effectively. By weaving together historical accounts, technical specifications, and the significance of Deere’s innovations, the book presents a comprehensive view of the agricultural revolution spurred by this remarkable invention, and it clarifies misconceptions about the materials used in early plow designs.
