Xenophobe’s Guide to the Poles. Everything what you want to know about Poland and Poles.
Shortcuts to poland. Laura Klos Sokol’s Shortcuts to Poland is the kind of book that you’re likely to wish you’d read when you were moving to Poland. This collection of articles originally appeared in Klos Sokol’s “Speaking Volumes” column in The Warsaw Voice is an invaluable introduction to the peculiarities-some wonderful, others annoying, others… well, peculiar-that you are certain to encounter as an expat. Whether you’ve been here for a month or for five years, Shortcuts is sure to fill you with a warm glow of recognition-and might make you cringe at the number of times you got the wrong end of the stick.
Konstancin as it was. Interesting book about the history of Konstancin when the railway was built and later dismantled. In english and polish.
Poland. James A. Michener. 1984. Like the heroic land that is its subject, James Michener’s POLAND teems with vivid events and unforgettble characters. In the sweeping span of eight tumultuous centuries, three Polish families live out their destinies and the drama of a nation–in the grand tradition of a great James Michener saga.
