Synopsis
With well-written, detailed text based on research and personal interviews and with sensitive, comprehensive photography, Gallup provides a fine portrait of today's Texans descended from Czech immigrants. Texas-Czech culture remains strong in Texas, and the author tells how Texas-Czech customs and language survive despite the pressures from mainstream, modern American culture. He also describes Texas-Czech ethnic identity, organizations, relations with other ethnic groups, ties to the modern Czech Republic, and prospects for the future.
