Mill by David Macaulay

Mill by David Macaulay

The mills at Wicksbridge are imaginary, but their planning, construction, and operation are quite typical of mills developed in New England throughout the nineteenth century. Since the publication of his first book, Cathedral in 1973, David Macaulay has acquired national and international acclaim. His books have been translated into a dozen languages, and he has been honored with countless awards, including a medal from the American Institute of Architects for being "an outstanding illustrator and recorder of architectural accomplishments".
