		An agreement, however, was concluded, and John undertook his invasion of Italy, which was perhaps the most dazzling of his exploits.

	Old Homes of New Americans, Chapter 2
		Bohemia is interesting to every reader, because of its, thrilling history, replete with deeds of patriotic courage, and because of its sturdy, industrious, progressive people, who, against terrific odds, are again reviving the ancient glories of their race.
		Bohemia is especially interesting to the American reader, since there are at least four hundred thousand men, women, and children of Bohemian parentage in America, of whom more than one half were born on Bohemian soil, and because this great army is reinforced by an average of more than ten thousand new recruits every year.

		This was evident as the result of the same doctrines in Bohemia-- that land which was richest in ecclesiastical foundations-- where in a very brief time the entire church estate was taken over and a most remarkable revolution brought about in the relations of temporal holdings.

	bohemia
		Son and successor of Wenceslas I; king of Bohemia and Moravia (1253-78) and duke of Austria (1253-74); led crusades to East Prussia (1254) and Lithuania (1266-67); extended (1260-69) his domain from Silesia to the Adriatic; divested (1274, 1276) of all territories save Bohemia and Moravia by Rudolf I; rebelled, slain at Battle of Durnkrut.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. John Nepomucene
		This John was the son of Welflin (or Wölflin), a burger of Pomuk (Nepomuk), and studied theology and jurisprudence at the University of Prague.
		King Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia, wishing to found a new bishopric for one of his favourites, ordered that at the death of Abbot Rarek of Kladrau no new abbot should be elected, and that the abbey church should be turned into a cathedral.
		Consequently, when Protestant historians, as Abel, assert that the veneration of St. John Nepomucene was first introduced by the Jesuits to banish the cult of John Hus from Bohemia, their contention is both unhistorical and without justification: the veneration of John of Nepomuk was widespread long before the Jesuits ever existed.

		John had already begun work on a new album - Technicolour Biography - that had to wait another 29 years before release.
		Listening to John Howard now it's easy to hear his roots in the North West (his voice has more than a hint of John Lennon, one of his heroes), his classical musical training and his early influences in the big sound he loves to produce.
