This
book is an English translation of Die
Banater Schwaben by Nikolaus
Engelmann, first printed in
German in 1961. This English
translation, is now in its second printing. It describes the history and culture
of the German settlements in the Banat, with minimal mention of the events
following WWII. It was one of the
first such books about the Banat heritage to appear in English.
It was originally addressed to the descendants of the Banat Germans
who settled in North Dakota, whose knowledge of their background was minimal and
whose interest was high.
