That kind of publication seems to be a difficult task (a difficult challenge) but not for Adam Bujak – very talented photographer, who successfully has managed to present this vast subject. It makes this book an incredible review of the various urban lay-outs and architectural monuments - located all over Poland - being the witnesses of the complex and dramatic Polish history. This album was an artistic promotion of Poland just before the Union enlargement.
 
 
Karol Wojtyła. Friend, Cardinal, Pope
Gabriel Turowski
 
Product details: 154 pp, format 230 x 280 mm, coated paper 170 g, laminated hardcover, jacket;
 
This unique book shows us the life of Karol Wojtyła in a new and different way. It is a documentary which uses both texts and photographs. Professor Gabriel Turowski was very close to John Paul II and knew him well.
The author tells about the young Karol Wojtyła. His memories are very personal, and most of the photos are unknown and had never been published before. They carry great emotional values and show Karol Wojtyła in private situations. That is what makes the book so extraordinary. You read the texts with bated breath and feel touched by the photos.

Besides the beautiful photos of Bavaria, the book contains photographs of Joseph Ratzinger in his youth. It is the first volume about Pope Benedict XVI in Poland.

Treasures of nature and architecture

Peter Scherbuk

Available in: Polish, English, German
Product details: format 235x290 mm, 256 pp, coated paper 170 g, laminated hardcover, jacket
ISBN 978-83-60292-40-2
 
Amidst the Masurian forest wilderness you can encounter a lurking lynx, powerful bisons and ominous wolves. Old virgin forests and shores overgrown with reeds have lived in harmony with their ages - long rhythm, hiding many secrets within. Luscious greenery contrasts with multiplicity of colours – a rainbow of butterflies, black and white storks, red poppies. Also human creations, such as small churches, the Święta Lipka Sanctuary, picturesque villages, gravestones hidden in the thicket belong in the landscape created by nature. All that was immortalized by the camera belonging to Waldemar Bzura, a dweller of this land. An engrossing text by Jerzy Kruszelnicki will answer many important questions and will serve both as a guide in the travel across the album pages and an enticement for you to visit Masuria.

This volume is something long awaited on the Polish market.

Major part of this book constitute the captivating, world famous, photographs of Adam Bujak which turn back the time to show the Nazi terror. This volume also abounds in other photographic material. There are archival photographs documenting the dramatic fate of the deported, as well as outtakes from the memoirs and relations of former prisoners, describing the cruelty and incredible depravity of Nazi butchers, as well as German sources concerning the mass extermination of people from the occupied territories.
