    The Adelsverein Trilogy, now combined in a single hardbound edition, is a saga of family and community loyalties, and the challenge of building a new life on the hostile frontier. They came from Germany to Texas in 1847, under the auspices of the Mainzer Adelsverein - the society of noblemen of Mainz, who tried to fill a settlement in Texas with German farmers and craftsmen.Christian Vati Steinmetz, the clockmaker of Ulm in Bavaria, has brought his sons and daughters: Magda - passionate and courageous, courted by Carl Becker, a young frontiersman with a dangerous past. Her sister Liesel wants nothing more than to be a good wife to her husband Hansi, a stolid and practical farmer called by circumstances to be something greater, in the boom years of the great cattle ranches. Their brothers Friedrich and Johann, have always been close - in the Civil War, one will wear Union blue, the other Confederate grey homespun - but never forget they are brothers. And finally, there is Vatis adopted daughter Rosalie, whose life ends as it began - in tragedy. But Vatis family will will survive and ultimately triumph. They will make their mark in Texas, their new land.Adelsverein: Its about love and loss, joy and grief . . . and the sometimes wrenching process of becoming American.
