Hi Krupik, my main area of knowledge of Polish history is during the second world war as I have read much about the concentration camps established there, the ghettos set up, the anti-semitism of many of the Polish people towards the Jews even though they were themselves seen as second class citizens by the Nazis. I had a wonderful book about Poland showing the life there before the war, the traditions and country life, and then the changes which came about through the war. Poland is the country I would most like to visit, and to see the remains of Austwich.

Oh - thank you for that comment! Yes, you are right - this period is very interesting. Now is different, in fact my best friend in two weeks will marry great guy from Israel. I am so happy for her! And if you would like to come to Poland, you are welcome!

Hi krupik, that's great to hear about the difference in attitudes now. I used to have two good Polish friends who lived here but they returned to Poland where they found the work situation had much improved in their absence and have now stayed in Poland. I'll look at your F/R later, I'm realy backlogged on there.
