The photos chosen for this book illustrate windmill manufacture, distribution, and use in all regions of the US, with an emphasis on the Great Plains. They take us into the factories to show how commercial windmills were mass-produced and marketed - and also into rural America to show how inventive individuals designed their own wind machines.
