undated but circa 1970's.; illustrated by colour photo's.; "it is recorded that some 10,000 windmills were at work during the period when Cobbett was making his Rural Rides (1830) and the average person accepted the windmill as part of his daily life, and, indeed, did so right up to the end of the last century. A study of old guidebooks, handbooks and the like published during the thirty years before 1914 shows that they rarely, if ever, mentioned the windmill as a subject worthy of interest, let alone careful study, because it was still commonplace and so it did not occur to the old writers to make any comment."; 32 pages.
