This biography of Joseph Krenek, written in Czech by Jan Kucera before he passed away in 1949, was translated into English by Bessie Walla Hruska of Ellinger in 1983. Jan Kucera was born in the same small Moravian village two years after the birth of Joseph Krenek, so they undoubtedly were lifelong friends. Krenek, a successful merchant and civic leader, died relatively young, so Kucera honored his good friend by writing his biography. Additional information has been added to clarify certain points.
