We are pleased to present the publication by Jan Skłodowski Zaleszczyki. Riviera of pre-war Poland , which describes the history of the extraordinary resort of the Second Polish Republic. The book was published in co-edition between Księży Młyn Publishing House and the Polonika Institute.

Let an excerpt from the publication introduce Zaleszczyki:

"Here is a famous Transnistrian health resort, a meeting place for the intellectual, financial, political and artistic elite of the country and a resting place for summer visitors coming from its furthest corners. And all around are vineyards, orchards, gardens and villas, suburban mansions and country cottages immersed in lush greenery. A neighbourhood inhabited by a people with a speech, dress, faith and customs so fascinating, so different from the rest of the country. Podolia, a land full of traces of centuries-old history - ruins of castles and borderland strongholds, places of glory, but also of defeats in the armed struggles of the former Republic of Poland on the Christian frontier of Europe".
