Reviews

"Dit fraai uitgegeven boek veel interessants over heden en verleden van het Waddengebied. [...] Al met al een mooi, informatief en toegankelijk boek."
- Piet van Cruyningen, Tijdschrift voor Waterstaatsgeschiedenis, 2 (2020)

"The different sections and chapters [in this book] offer a wide variety of topics that sometimes ask for further exploration or more research. This makes the book a worthwhile purchase for both scientists, policy makers and other people with a keen interest in this dynamic and special region."
- David Koren, Journal of European Landscapes, 1 (2020)
