Description

Excerpted from the website:

Think of the Netherlands, and what may come to mind is a quaint countryside of historic canal houses, fields of tulips, and–of course–those ubiquitous windmills. Though the Netherlands today is a highly urban and technologically sophisticated nation, that image of the "old" country still plays a large role in the country’s economy–as a lure to millions of tourists. It’s fascinating to consider that these windmills were, for centuries, the main sources of mechanical energy before the dawn of the fossil fuel age–that such silent, pleasant-looking contraptions could have provided the power needed to pump water, grind grain, saw timber, and do a wide range of other tasks now done by loud, polluting machines. To the tourists, the relation between these quaint windmills and the modern diesel turbines or giant coal-burning power plants that have replaced them may seem as distant as that of schooners to speedboats.
