| Abstract | A chronicle of the German-Bohemian immigrant's journey to the new homeland in America. The chapters in the book are intended to illustrate how the German-Bohemians in Brown county revealed patterns of chain rather than individual migration. Their enclave fostered language retention, religious homogeneity, endogamy, family transplants, retention of Old World life styles, and a somewhat slower than normal rate of assimilation with American society |
