Luxembourg And Letzebuergesch;
Language And Communication At The Crossroads Of Europe by Newton, Gerald
Price: US$69.95 Pages: 286 Binding: Hardcover Pub Date: 06/96 Edition: 0001
Category: Literary Criticism Publisher: Oxford University Press
Card catalog description: The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg sits at the heart of the European Union, yet it forms a very private and close-knit community. This book addresses that apparent paradox, and shows how it is reflected in and sustained by the linguistic practices of the people who live there, both native and foreign. Letzebuergesch, the country's national language, is most closely related to the German dialects of the western Rhineland and the Moselle river valley, but the country's historical and cultural links with Belgium, the Netherlands, and France are much closer than with Germany. Since the demise of Latin in the late Middle Ages as the language of administration, that role has been filled at various times by the standard varieties of French and German.
Declared a protected neutral country in 1867, Luxembourg has been twice invaded by Germany in twentieth century. But since 1945 French and Letzebuergesch have come to predominate and the use of German has once again receded. It is the unwritten social code governing the use of these languages (and latterly also of English) which gives this volume of specially commissioned papers its focus: the purpose is to provide an insider's view of the community, and of its little-known language. The book contains the most detailed linguistic description of Letzebuergesch so far available in English.

I am the only person in the country with my name, so not difficult to find.

The Battle of the Bulge in Luxembourg:
The Southern Flank : December 1944-January 1945 : The Germans (The Germans , Vol 1)
by Roland GaulList: Price: $35.00 Volume 1 Hardcover Published by Schiffer Publishing, Ltd.
Publication date: September 1995
Readers comment: Very nice, I will buy Volumn 2. Very well researched. The detailed descriptions, at the start of the book, for the units that played a part in this portion of battle were excellent and invaluable. I gained a much greater appreciation for the true qualties of the units that fought with this book than from any other reading or sources. The following individual soldier's stories that fill the greater part of this book were facinating. A rare chance to be at eyeball level and see their war. You get a true sense of the ebb and flow of the battle, as soldier's stories weave along, crossing paths of others.
