The story of the enclosure and reclamation of the Zuider Zee by the people of Holland
Written and produced by Robert Kemp
Two months ago producers Gilliam and Kemp visited Holland and made records of the work in connection with the reclamation of the Zuider Zee. Since this started 48,000 acres have been reclaimed and turned into fertile ' polders ', and this is only a tenth of the total in mind.
' Men against the Sea' tells the history of this struggle, dramatising the whole adventurous story. You will find an article by Robert Kemp on page 13.
