Very detailed and reliable map, which clearly shows how the peat dredging in the middle of the 18th century threatened this part of Holland, so that the governments had to take hard measures in order to prevent a "second Haarlemmermeer " would arise north of Rotterdam. Also interesting is the course of the peat river ‘De Rotte’ and due to the many polder and field names. For those interested in the history of the area, this is a great source of information.
