Winner, 2019 San Antonio Conservation Society Foundation Book Award, sponsored by the San Antonio Conservation Society Foundation German immigrants of the nineteenth century left a distinctive mark on the lifestyles and vernacular architecture of Texas. In this first comprehensive survey of the art and artifacts of German Texans, Kenneth Hafertepe explores how their material culture was influenced by their European roots, how it was adapted to everyday life in Texas, and how it changed over time—at different rates in different communities. The Material Culture of German Texans is about the struggle to become American while maintaining a distinctive cultural identity drawn from German heritage. Including materials from rural, small town, and urban settings, this masterful study covers pioneer generations in East Texas and the Hill Country, but also follows the story into the Victorian era and the early twentieth century. Houses and their furnishings, churches and cemeteries, breweries and businesses, and paintings and engravings fill the pages of this thorough, informative, and richly illustrated volume. Recent decades have seen a sharp increase of the study of vernacular architecture (which can range from traditional building to ethnic expressions to landscape ensembles) and an intensified study of American furniture and other decorative arts. Incorporating these vernacular and decorative arts methods and building on the works of cultural geographers, curators, and historians, The Material Culture of German Texans offers a definitive contribution that will inform visitors to the region as well as those who study its history and culture.

Excerpt from Centennial Anniversary of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Sterling, Illinois, 1854-1954 The preparation of this booklet would have been well nigh impossible, had it not been for the excellent work done by Dr. E. C. Harris in preserving historical materials and records of our church. His published booklets were invaluable as were the almost' complete set of Synodical Minutes and the Proceedings of the Church Council. Access to the complete files of the Sterling Daily Gazette and assistance from synodical archivists has also been of great help. The Centennial Committee, appointed by the Church Council, has been very helpful to the writer in many ways. I especially wish to recognize Edwin R. Bowers who did so much in organizing this material for the printer. Space does not permit the listing of all who have helped. Some have come forward with important bits of information, others with needed pictures, and still others by showing an interest in this project. St. John's has had a rich history during the first hundred years. Let us all begin now to build an equally fine history for the second century in the life of our church.
