Windmills, picturesque and historic : the Motors of the past / by F.H. Shelton
A survey of windmills by engineer F. H. Shelton, issued by Lippincott in Philadelphia in 1919 for general readers and antiquarians interested in early power machinery. Halftone photographs and pen drawings show tower, smock and post mills in silhouette against open sky, with lattice sails, weatherboarded bodies and ladder tails clearly legible — useful for tracing sail geometry and rural skyline shapes.
