Description: Whip up some ‘Dobre’ grub and maybe impress your Czech grandma! Complete with berry-picking tales and enough recipes to keep you busy. Libuse, Louisiana, is a small, unincorporated community in Rapides Parish, founded in 1914 by Czech immigrants. Named after the legendary Czech princess Libuše, the community was established as part of a colonization effort by the Bohemian Colonization Company to create a new home for Czech settlers in the United States. Libuse was primarily agricultural, with settlers growing crops and raising livestock, maintaining strong cultural ties to their Czech heritage through language, traditions, and the establishment of St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. Over the years, Libuse has retained its unique cultural identity, celebrating its Czech roots through annual festivals and community events. Today, it remains a quiet, rural community, reflecting both its Czech origins and the broader cultural fabric of central Louisiana. • Spiral bound for easy use • Authentic Czech recipes • 110 pages of culinary delight • Illustrated cover and sections • Published in 2009 Handwritten note on the inside cover.
