A German Paradise in Texas – The Fate of German Emigrants to Texas in the 1840’s is a gripping historical novel about the Germans who left their home country more than 150 years ago.
False promises of a better life and incompetent organizers attracted thousands who had little to lose back home to look for a new life in Texas with the hope of creating a New Germany free from tyranny and poverty. These courageous people created much of the culture of Texas today.
This emotive rendering of Scheffels monumental ‘lost’ heart-rending classic makes this story available for English language readers for the first time. Notes are provided for additional background information.
