Budweisers into Czechs and Germans
A Local History of Bohemian Politics, 1848-1948
by Jeremy King
"This history of a single town in Bohemia casts new light on nationalism in Central Europe between the Springtime of Nations in 1848 and the Cold War. Jeremy King tells the story of both German and Czech-speaking Budweis/Budejovice, which belonged to the Habsburg Monarchy until 1918, and then to Czechoslovakia, Hitler's Third Reich, and Czechoslovakia again. Residents, at first simply "Budweisers," or Habsburg subjects with mostly local loyalties, gradually became Czechs or Germans.
Who became Czech, though, and who German? What did it mean to be one or the other?"--BOOK JACKET.
