Cracow Illustrated History

More than any other city, Cracow can rightly be called the soul of Poland. This concise volume offers the reader a panoramic view of Cracow, from its mythical founding to its designation as a European City of Culture in the twenty-first century. Enriched by more than fifty illustrations and photographs, it explores the city's continuing role as Poland's cultural, social, and educational center. Dr. Zygulski resides in Cracow, where he has served as Curator of the National Museum of Cracow and Professor of Art History at the Academy of Fine Arts-Cracow.
