William P. |
A quote from March 2002 "Off-Highway Heroes" states, "One name that should go on the list (list of important people behind the creation and development of the wheel) is William P. Bettendorf, who was born in Mendota, IL in 1857, many thousands of years after the first pre-historic wheel was created. Bettendorf helped give the off-highway vehicle a strong foundation on which to work." |
