In August 1972, Ryszard Kukliński, a
highly respected colonel in the Polish Army, embarked on what
would become one of the most extraordinary human intelligence
operations of the Cold War. Despite extreme risk to himself and
his family, he contacted the American Embassy in Bonn, and
arranged a secret meeting. He told the Americans that he
deplored the Soviet domination of Poland, he believed his
country was on the wrong side of the Cold War. The only way he
could help Poland was to work against its oppressor, the Soviet
Union, and deliver its deepest military secrets to the West.
This book is based on extensive interviews with colonel
Kukliński.

the task of establishing the truth of Russia's early
revolutionary years and of probing the character of the man who
had such an indelible impact on his country's fate.

General Bor-Komorowski was Commander of
the Polish Home Army which was Europe's largest and most active
resistance force during World War II. "The Secret Army" id his
personal account of those desperate days; it is also the history
of a proud people prepared to make tremendous sacrifices. It
covers in detail the famous Warsaw Uprising of August 1944, one
of the most tragic events in modern Polish history. For his
leadership in this battle, General Bor-Komorowski has been given
the highest praise. +The Secret Army" is a testimony to the fact
that the price of freedom is a high one, but it is one that the
Polish Nation has never shrunk from paying.

Wroclaw (German Breslau) is the
traditional capital of the province of Silesia rose to
prominence a thousand years ago as a trading centre and
bishopric in Piast Poland. It became the second city of the
kingdom of Bohemia, a major municipality of the Habsburg land,
and then a Resideszstadt of the kingdom of Prussia. The third
largest city of nineteenth-century Germany, before the bitter
siege by the Soviet Army in 1945 wrought almost total
devastation. Since then Wroclaw has been returned to Poland and
risen from the ruins of war and is once again a thriving
regional centre. "Microcosm" is one of the greatest chronicles
of Wroclaw. Worthy to read indeed.

"The Deeds of Faith" by Stefan Cardinal
Wyszynski is a rich collection drawn from the sermons and
addresses Primate of Poland, a Churchman in the great tradition,
a spiritual leader and a teacher of John Paul the Great. The
Cardinal here speaks to his people, and, though them, to the
world: "Poles know how to die wonderfully. But, my children, it
is also necessary that Poles know how to live wonderfully. One
dies only once, and becomes famous quickly. But one lives in
difficulties, in pain, in suffering, in sorrow, for many years.
And this is the greatest heroism in the present time". This is a
book worthy to read - for everybody !

leftiests. Her first book reveals everything that the most
important for Sarah Palin: her marriage, her governing, her love
for United States.

Fascinating book written by Edward
Girardet who as a young foreign correspondent arrived in
Afghanistan just three months prior to the Soviet invasion in
1979. Over the next decades, he trekked hundreds of miles across
rugged mountains and desserts on clandestine journeys following
Afghan guerillas in battle as they smuggled French doctors into
the country, and as they combated each other as well as
invaders. He witnessed the world's greatest refugee exodus, the
bitter Battle of Kabul in the early 1990s, the rise of Taliban,
and, finally, the US-led Western military and recovery effort
that began in 2001.
