Sinopsis

The Czechs [Bohemians] in America, first published in 1920, offers a detailed examination of the Czech immigrant experience in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Author Thomas Capek explores the national, cultural, economic, and religious life of Czechs who settled in America, providing valuable insights into their adaptation and contributions to American society. Capek delves into the social structures and organizations formed by Czech immigrants, examining their newspapers, schools, and fraternal societies. He analyzes their economic activities, from farming to industrial labor, and discusses the role of the church in preserving cultural identity. The book also addresses the challenges faced by Czechs in America, including discrimination and assimilation pressures.
