Excellent Eyewitness Travel Guide of Poland

By Joseph_Spence,_Sr.

I purchased this "Poland Travel Guide Book," published by DK.com while taking a class in Polish. I found the book very interesting during my studies. While it did not go along with the language class in a parallel manner, it was quite useful regarding some of the history about Poland. I was under the impression that more language would be included with a section of definition; however, that section was very small and the words were different from what we used in class. The professor also did not care for the book and I just read it during my spare time between classes.




The book was very informative and it contained numerous images of castles, museums, and people in decorative clothing, sculptures, paintings, special rivers, and a variety of lakes. Many of the sections contained examples of interesting data, historical facts, and special images to spark one's interest.



Included in the book one will find a variety of websites available to checkout additional, and acquire more detailed information about Poland and its history. There are also interesting images, color drawings, and paintings of kings and other dignitaries.



Germany is a neighbor of Poland to its west and Czech Republic to its south. The history of Poland is very interesting and unusual, especially since it has been in a variety of wars and had to fight invaders and foreign rulers. It appears to be impacted by more instability than stability.



This is an excellent book. It provides a lot of information on tourism and contains a wealth of information for the making of plans, actual sightseeing, and finding places to rest and recuperate.



I enjoyed reading the book during my studies of Polish. I also had several interesting discussions with individuals from Poland while reading the book. As a person who loves to take pictures, I am planning one day to visit Poland and capture some fantastic pictures of the sites. The index in the back of the book in very detailed and will guide the reader to specific sections without any problems.
