Eva Eckert · 2007
על הספר
The language of tombstones tells the story of Czech immigrants in Texas, from its beginnings in the social and economic upheavals of 19th- and early-20th century Bohemia and Moravia to its end in the ers of opportunity and mobility that followed World War II. The linguistic and material data of tombstones is interwoven with records of the TexasCzech community as well as with historical accounts of life in the homeland. Rich in primary sources, many of them unpublished or unavailable in English, meticulously researched, and sweeping in its scope, Stones in the Praire is a valuable resource for sociologist, scoloars in the field of immigration studies, and all those interested in the history of Texas and its Czech heritage. From back of book.
