Harlequin Jac. P. Thijsse. nature conservationist and writer
Nature monuments, Bird Protection, the Verkade Albums, the Flora: without Jac. P. Thijsse, the Netherlands would have been a different country. A country with less nature and, even worse, less love for the unspoiled landscape. We owe the Naardermeer and other famous nature reserves, hedgerows, bird-friendly meadows, winding streams and even the Amsterdamse Bos to Thijsse, the founder of nature conservation in the Low Countries. Jac. P. Thijsse - Conservationist and writer is a compelling portrait of an affable but unyielding nature propagandist, a naturalist without equal and a gifted writer.
