About This Book

"In 1827 Godfrieg Duden, travel writer from Cologne, Germany, published Report on a Journey to the Western States of North America. In this travel narrative, Duden marveled at the similarities between the Mississippi and Missouri River valleys and that of the Rhine. He pleaded for his countrymen to take up the plow and till the virgin soils of the American West." "In The St. Louis German Catholics William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., traces the settlement, growth, and impact of one of St. Louis's most enduring communities."--BOOK JACKET.
