"The wide plains of the American Northwest attracted thousands of immigrants from different parts of Europe, including many Czechs, who began arriving in the late 19th century, drawn by higher wages, attractive commercial opportunities, and, above all, affordable land for farming. The Czech settlements held onto their specific national character. They were local communities held together through a number of educational, fraternal, cultural, and entertainment clubs and associations. Let us explore the fascinating history of these proud people from the heart of Europe, finding their future in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington."---back cover of book
