"Sherman Bleakney employs his knowledge as a marine biologist to examine the unusual physical and biological features of the environment at Grand Pre, features that encouraged dyke construction as a viable alternative to clearing forested upland terrain." "Among many others, topics discussed by Bleakney include Bay of Fundy geology and derivation of marsh soils, sod production, Acadian technology, and dykeland fishing and hunting practices."--Jacket Contents -- Figures and Tables -- Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Colour Illustrations -- 1 Introduction -- 2 Geology, Geography, and Tides -- 3 Tidal Aspects and Effects -- 4 Sods, Soil, and Spades: The Botanical Contribution -- 5 The Art and Science of Dyke Construction -- 6 Sequence of Dykeland Enclosures at Grand Pré -- 7 300 Years of Rising Sea Levels -- 8 Coping With Cartographic Errors -- 9 History of Dykelands at Six Locations -- 10 Recent Exposures of Entombed Shorelines -- Summary and Conclusions -- APPENDICES 1 Chronology of Various Events Pertaining to Dykelands2 Minas Basin Tidal Marsh Flora -- 3 Persons Contacted for Information on Dyking -- 4 Data Sheet: Tidal Marsh Sod-Cutting Spade -- 5 J.
