Books! Free or Cheap! Come and Get 'Em!



Books Books Books! Come and Get 'Em!

Books on Polish topics. Books on Jewish topics. Books on Polish-Jewish topics.

Some are FREE! Some are CHEAP!

No offer will be turned away!

I need to de-cumulate a bit. Many of these are very good books. I am not giving them away because of their quality, but for other reasons.

Have a look!

If you see a book you want, please email me or post in the comments section. If the book is popular, brand new, and in good condition, I will ask for the standard used price from Amazon. If the book is older, with highlighting, I will probably send you the book just for whatever it costs for me to pack and post it.

THANK YOU!

  1. I am also divesting myself of some of these same books or similar tomes. Right now they are ensconced in boxes in the basement. Good luck on re-homing yours. Mothers in the Fatherland is a must read I do believe. Christina Pacosz

  4. My name is Ben Bieganski, I am doing some reasearch on your book to see where this is all coming from. My grandpa Leo Bieganski was 100% Polish and I believe I can pull up some history on this topic. His parent can directly from Poland and I am able to trace this tree back quite far. Look forward to getting through this book.
