Kurt Hafner describes the technically highly interesting developments in the Bulldog tractors during World War II and in the postwar period. Because of the shortage of fuel in Germany during the war the technology of gas production from wood was enforced. The method of gas production, pure-gas Bulldogs, conversions and alterations are explained in detail.
One section is dedicated to the Crawler (Caterpillar) Bulldogs, their development, the various prototypes and mass production. Rare pictorial material of unusual developments turn this book into absorbing reading for all those interested in technical history.
In the section on postwar Bulldogs the main accent is placed on new developments, projects and modules which were suspended during the war but were later continued. The book concludes with a fascinating section on Bulldog lookalikes and copies from other firms and other countries.
