The book presents unique literature in a minority ethnolect – the Germanic dialect of Wilamowice in Southern Poland. The manuscripts, written in the ethnolect at the beginning of the 20th century, were discovered in 1989.

Thus it presents both the dialectal literature and the most important elements of the local culture during the final stages of its extinction.
