This work focuses on the Catholic Bohemian German dialect of Ellis County, Kansas, in the United States. It is a unique Bavarian dialect spoken by descendants of settlers to this area in west central Kansas from Bukovina, then an Austrian province. The Catholic Bohemian Germans were one of two distinct groups of Bukovina immigrants to the Ellis area as early as the 1880s. They found their way to the United States and Kansas via Bukovina from the Bohemian Forest, today situated in the Czech Republic. Their German dialect faces its linguistic demise. This study documents the grammar and the lexicon of the Catholic Bohemian German dialect, based on dialect interviews. In addition it sheds light on its geographical origin in the Bohemian Forest.

"The study's intention is to share the 200 year story of Kansas' Bukovina-Germans, providing a basis upon which today's Bukovina- Germans can come to understand and appreciate a heritage that has remained largely ignored... Although they have been able to preserve their unique identity to date, their story has not been recorded and is in danger of being lost. The heritage and history of this group needs to be preserved"--Introd.
