From the earliest days of European settlement, Americans have cherished the sight of a windmill--an instantly recognizable feature of the American landscape. Boasting nearly two hundred striking images, American Windmills is the first book devoted to photographs illustrating historic wind machines throughout North America. T. Lindsay Baker, an expert historian on windmills, has written about wind-power history for twenty-five years. His album contains historic images captured by professional windmiller B. H. "Tex" Burdick and from corporate archives of windmill manufacturers. It depicts windmills in a wide range of settings and uses--not only on ranches and farms but also alongside railroads, in industry, and even in urban areas.
