The intent of this is to relate the background and the frontier experiences of the Wendish colony established in Texas in 1854 which, according to the knowledge and belief of the writer, is the only Wendish colony established in Texas and in North America. Other Wends came over with German colonists to parts of the United States and Canada, but not as a colonial group.
In presenting the story of these pioneers, the writer has endeavored to give a brief sketch of the Wends' Slavic ancestry to answer the questions frequently asked, "Who are the Wends?" and "Where did they come from?"
The Wends never had a nation of their own. They emigrated to this country from Germany. They came from the Lusatias, located on the Spree River, which today have diminished to a mere geographical expression.

Unique among early settlers of Texas was a group of political refugees, intellectuals and freethinkers -- a segment of the impressive Germany-to-Texas movement of the late 1840s -- who established new homes for themselves in the beautiful Hill Country some fifty miles north of San Antonio. The author was the Yankee bride of a great-grandson of Ernst Kapp, formerly professor at the University of Minden and one of those first settlers. 175pp Some toning to pages.
