Download or read book The Best of Nebraska Bohemians written by Dan Sanley and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Nebraska Bohemians" is a social media (Facebook) page that was created to honor our Czech immigrant ancestors. This book records some of the contributions made on the page.Bohemians, now called Czech Americans, who are living in Nebraska make up 5.5% of the state's population, the largest percentage of any state. The term "Bohemians" was not intended to exclude any specific group of Czechs. While Bohemia is a region of the Czech Republic, as are Moravia and Silesia, today these Czech speakers are referred to as Czechs. The term "Bohemians" was used to refer to all early Czech speaking immigrants to America as the Czechs did not have their own country. They came under Austrian-Hungarian rule but did not consider themselves, and weren't, Austrians or Hungarians. The term Bohemian is English and does not come from the Czech language. If you were to attempt to translate Bohemia to Czech it would be Čechy, relating to the region of Bohemia in the Czech Republic. The adjective Bohemian is český. Even the early language in America was called Bohemian or in Czech, český jazyk. Do not confuse Bohemian with bohemian. The bohemian lifestyle really has nothing to do with being a Bohemian. The Nebraska Bohemians page uses both words of Bohemians and Czechs interchangeably. The term Bohemians was used especially when referring to the past. The selected contributions published in this book come from a wide assortment of posts to the Facebook page. They should answer many of the questions for those who may not fully understand who the Czech immigrants were. This includes even today's descendants who didn't have the opportunity to learn from their ancestors. We must never forget who we are and from where we came. This book is dedicated to keeping that memory alive.

Download or read book Cleveland Czechs written by John T. Sabol and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cleveland's Czech community is one of the area's oldest European ethnic groups, with a presence in the area even before the Civil War. It is almost a geographical accident that Czechs arrived in Cleveland, where they would have stopped on the way to Czech or Bohemian communities in Nebraska, Iowa, and Wisconsin. From 1850 to 1870, the Czech community grew from 3 families to 696, according to The Encyclopedia of Cleveland History. Many found work making barrels for John D. Rockefeller's fledgling Standard Oil Company, while others found their way in professional life, including the arts. Their neighborhoods show their migration from Cleveland's central city to its outlying areas and suburbs including neighboring Geauga County. Today they continue to support three Czech halls and participate in the Czech gymnastic movement-Sokol. The photographs in Cleveland Czechs give readers a glimpse of those neighborhoods and their importance to Cleveland's history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive history of immigrants from the historic lands of the Bohemian Crown and its successor states, including Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic, based on the painstaking lifetime research of the author. The reader will find lots of new information in this book that is not available elsewhere. The title of the book comes from a popular song of the famous Czech artistic duo, Voskovec and Werich, who described America in those words when they lived here, reflecting on their love for this country. It covers the period starting soon after the discovery of the New World to date. The emphasis is on the US, although Canada and Latin America are also covered. It covers the arrival and the settlement of the immigrants in various states and regions of America, their harsh beginnings, the establishment of their communities, and their organization. A separate section is devoted to the contributions of notable individuals in different areas of human endeavor, including Bohemians, Moravians, Bohemian Jews, and the Slovaks. These people excelled in just about every facet of human undertaking. Even though a total number of these immigrants were fewer than other ethnic groups, their accomplishments were phenomenal. Nothing like this has ever been published since the time Thomas Capek wrote his classic The Cechs (Bohemians) in America some one hundred years ago.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Bohemian and Czech American Biography written by Miloslav Rechcigl Jr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 870 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Czech ambassador to the United States, H. E. Petr Gandalovic noted in his foreword to this book that Mla Rechcgl has written a monumental work representing a culmination of his life achievement as a historian of Czech America. The Encyclopedia of Bohemian and Czech American Biography is a unique and unparalleled publication. The enormity of this undertaking is reflected in the fact that it covers a universe, starting a few decades after the discovery of the New World, through the escapades and significant contributions of Bohemian Jesuits and Moravian brethren in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the mass migration of the Czechs after the revolutionary year of 1848, and up to the early years of the twentieth century and the influx of refugees from Nazism and communism. The encyclopedia has been planned as a representative, a comprehensive and authoritative reference tool, encompassing over 7,500 biographies. This prodigious and unparalleled encyclopedic vade mecum, reflecting enduring contributions of notable Americans with Czech roots, is not only an invaluable tool for all researchers and students of Czech American history but is also a carte blanche for the Czech Republic, which considers Czech Americans as their own and as a part of its magnificent cultural history.
