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.

Another book written by Alexander Solzhenitsyn beside well known "The Gulag Archipelag" is worthy to read. "Lenin in Zurich" chronicles Lenin's frustrating exile in Switzerland, from his arrest in Cracow and subsequent flight to Zurich at the outbreak of World War I to his departure for Russia - with his commrades - in 1917 in a sealed train protected by the German government. Solzhenitsyn has set himself 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.

In 1941 a small group of fellow prisoners escaped a Soviet labor camp in Siberia. Their march out of Siberia, through China, the Gobi Desert, Tibet, and the over the Himalayas to British India is a remarkable statement about man's desire to be free. Slavomir Rawicz who now lives in England, is an author of the true story book written as his own memoire. As a matter of fact he has recorded and presented as his own, a real history of the escape of another prisoner, Mr. Witold Glinski (who lives in England as well). Neverless this book is a breath-taking account of real event of  a small group getting out of Gulag in extreme conditions.

"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 !

"None Dare Call It Treason ... 25 Years Later" by John A. Stormer documents how leftists of various persuasions have dominated America's schools, churches, press, labor unions and State Department for 70 yearsas they murdered 100 million people and enslaved other billions. This is a shocking account of a man who had been acively involved in communist movement since his student years. "None Dare Call It Treason - 25 Years Later" is the tool for awakening and educating Americans so they can thwart leftist plans for entangling the United States in a "new world order".

"A Question of Honor" is the gripping, little-known, and brillantly told story of the scores od Polish fighter pilots who helped save England during the Battle of Britain and of their stunning betrayal by the United States and England at the end of World War II. The betrayal which Poland stilll experiences. "A Question of Honor" also gives a revelatory history of Poland during World War II and of the many thousands in the Polish armed forces who fought withe the Allies. It tells of the country's unending struggle against both Hitler and Stalin, its long battle for independence and the tragic end of their dreams.


On September 3, 2008 Alaska Governor and vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin delivered a speech at the Republican National Convention that electrified the nation and instantly made her one of the most recognizable women in the world.. As chief executive of America's largest state she built a record as a reformer who cast aside politics-as usual and pushed through changes other politicians only dreamt about. As the campaign unfolded, Palin became a lightening rod for the  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.
