The first segment is a study of the windmills found at Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where a craftsman in Barnstable is shown working on making replicas of famous windmills known on the Cape for generations. These toys also serve the purpose of practical windmills as well as decorations. Segment two is a travelogue of the isle of Corsica, the birthplace of Napoleon, where the locals pursue their activities as they did in the past. Both segments narrated by Graham McNamee.
