1607 Italian book with mills powered by water and animals

For those of us who like mechanical devices - check out Vittorio Zonca’s (1568-1603)  Novo Teatro Di Machine Et Edificii.   Padoua: 1607.  Click to enlarge.  
 

 




The New Theater of Machines and Buildings is only about 100 pages with a lot of tremendous images. HERE
