Maritime dykelands - the 350 year struggle
Dykes have been part of Nova Scotia history since the first settlers arrived in the 17th century. They were used to reclaim excellent agricultural land, principally in the Fundy Bay region. This monograph records in chronological sequence some of the more significant highlights of the struggle engaged in by people of the Maritime Provinces in wrestling land from the sea. It contains a detailed account of the construction and use of dykes, as well as technical descriptions of structures.
