For what I paid for this book, I suppose I received a value price item, so really should not complain. Having been in the road construction industry for many years, I suppose I was looking for something more technical, instead of something of a basis description nature. I would also mention, that this book is not solely about diggers, but the likes of a road roller, dump truck's, a CAT 966H shovel/loader also. For someone looking at slightly older diggers (!), there is a range of approx 45 products covered, and the articles on each page, should possibly provide sufficient information, leading to selecting further and more intense reading material on road construction equipment.

This is an excellent book,not only for the young and un-initiated in the world of excavators,dozers and general plant.It is a handy size reference book for the hardened enthusiast who are obviously well versed in what is required for the many tasks that these machines carry out.It is full of excellent photos and very informative text with out being too technical.This is overall a very good value book to any one who is new to "plant watching" or just a nice item to add to a collection.I could find almost no faults with the book because of the level it is aimed at,a very good buy.
