Welcome to TOURNAnet.com.

Tournanet.com is an internet-based customer service portal owned and operated by Global General Publishing Pty Ltd.  Global General Publishing Pty Ltd owns and publishes a range of high quality technical books. Tournanet.com is our web site for our earthmoving and heavy equipment book range. Tournanet.com was first launched in 1995 and has been in continuous operation since that time. Until 2007, Tournanet.com also provided a vibrant technical discussion forum for persons interested in the history, invention and future development of earthmoving and mining equipment.  Some 1700 individuals were registered as contributing participants, and along with thousands of visitors to the site, contributed to the discussion forum about LeTourneau, LeTourneau-Westinghouse, WABCO and earthmoving equipment in general.  The original discussion forum was closed in 2007.  On 1 January 2012, a new discussion forum called TOURNAblog was opened. Please feel welcome to join the online discussion forum at TOURNAblog.

Tournanet.com is your customer service portal and ordering platform for books about earthmoving and heavy equipment.

Global General Publishing Pty Ltd is committed to creating and delivering value for our customers.  We offer you high-quality traditional print editions and we are also offering our titles in digital format delivered as genuine digital flipping-page books. Using digital publishing solutions in the Cloud, we work in close cooperation with our authors and Amazon Web Services LLC utilising Amazon ElastiCache and AWS Cloud digital delivery services.  For example, Global General Publishing Pty Ltd is able to deliver you a 312 page A4 size fully illustrated digital book utilising AWS application delivery architecture in a just matter of minutes.   With just a few clicks, you will have your digital edition in your possession and saved on your computer. 

We are offering our customers real value for money by producing genuine digital flipping-page books.  These digital editions are genuine flipping page books with turning pages and covers.   Our digital editions are very easy to use and all they require is the free standalone Adobe Flash Player installed on most computers as standard.  If you don't have Adobe Flash Player, it's a quick free download from Adobe.  After ordering and paying via Paypal, you will immediately receive an e-mail with a down load link - simply down load the book .zip file, save it to a folder on your computer, unzip and it is ready to read, instantly.  You can print it if you wish.

The Wabco Archive Wheel Tractor-Scrapers, ISBN978-0-9871503-0-1, is available now as an instant digital download by ordering here at Tournanet.com.  As of 2011 The LeTourneau Legend (4th Digital Edition) is also available as an instant digital delivery.  Our other titles including The LeTourneau Archive and additional titles will also be available as AWS Cloud downloads in the near future.  Watch this space for an announcement about the digital edition of Wabco Australia due out soon!

We provide a seamless ordering experience and online payment facility for our customers with the Paypal BUY NOW payment system. The purchasing and payment process is exactly the same way you pay for something on Ebay or Amazon. Paypal has become the most popular payment processing platform world-wide and implementation of this payment system here at Tournanet.com negates the need for our customers to provide credit card details by fax or fill in online ordering forms and email them to us, or send cheques, as in the past. Paypal offers a safe ordering procedure whereby you, as our customer, pay Paypal and Paypal in turn pays us - thus you can order online in confidence knowing the payment details you supplied are known only to Paypal.  The Paypal facility has made the purchasing experience for our customers a safe and pleasant one. And best of all, you don't need a Paypal account, you can choose to pay by credit card at Paypal.
