BOOK 4:
Irena Grabowska, Gallery ‘Arms and Colours in Poland’. The National Museum in Cracow. Exhibiotion guide, Cracow 2005; ISBN 83-87312-60-6

The smallest book, which is guide on the largest arms, armours and uniforms exhibition in Poland, in National Museum. All in all it’s more like invitation for you, while the book is a description of “gallery” room by room. I believe you can find here also many interesting informations about arms used in Poland, and I believe it will encourage you to visit this special place (give me a call or write e-mail before you go

). In the text you’ll find descriptions of most spectacular objects, their provenance, history, origin, everything with inserts of Polish history, photographs, and history of the collection. The book is with small glossary of terms

LANGUAGE: English

80 pp., 31 color photographs, high quality paper, 20x12cm (7,8x4,7 inch.), weight 0,2kg;

PRICE

BOOK 5:
Wojna i pokoj [War and Peace – Ottoman-Polish relations in 15th – 19th centuries], edit.: T.Majda and S. Kangal, Warszawa 1999; ISBN 83-7100-101-0
Catalogue of great exhibitions in Poland and Instabul, articles and many photos with descriptions of Turkish art: arms, pottery, graphics, paintings, fabrics, rugs, tents etc. I have a feeling this might be hardest to get.

LANGUAGE: catalogue was printed in English and Polish. Unfortunately in Poland you can (hardly) get only Polish version, but I’ve got English version photocopied, so CD with this “all-in-English” version added free

. Or try to search internet, maybe you can buy this one somewhere.

462 pp., circa 380 color illustrations, softbound, 33x23cm (13x9 inch), weight 2,4 kg, high quality paper;

PRICE:
41 EUROS + shipment circa 25 EUROS
