The author has also selected all illustrations and taken most of the photographs from which they were reproduced. He is a mechanical engineer and the leading expert on windmills in this country, adviser on windmills, amongst other things, to the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. He has for years travelled round to visit windmills in Britain and abroad, and to study the economic and technical possibilities of their survival. To him a windmill is neither a beauty spot nor a memorial of a quaint past, but a piece of workable machinery, as functional as a clock in its body and fittings. The problem, however, lies in that it is—at least in England-nearly always a piece of old-fashioned machinery, incapable of standing the competition of power-milling. At the end of the number the reader will find Mr. Wailes's suggestions as to how a new lease of life might be given to certain English windmills.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWINDMILLS IN EARLY ENCYCLOPEDIAS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePOST MILL AND TOWER MILL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOUNTRY MILL AND TOWN MILL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSAILS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMILLING MACHINERY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eREGIONAL SURVEY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eACKNOWLEDGMENTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGLOSSARY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition: \u003c\/b\u003eGood.
