Edward Kajdański: How I discovered Michal Boym - the Polish MARCO POLO

This is the last of Edward Kajdanski`s books, published while the author was still alive. It presents the history of the research that Kajdanski dedicated to the fate and achievements of the Jesuit Michael Boym - the Polish Marco Polo.

"Edward Kajdanski`s work and achievements in the field of bringing the outstanding achievements of Michael Boym to the world, not only in Poland, is extremely important, and this is because until Kajdanski took an interest in the Polish Jesuit and missionary, Boym`s achievements were almost unknown, both in China and Poland, as well as in other countries around the world. It was his meticulous work that made Boym one of the most important Europeans in the history of the Middle Kingdom, and he is often referred to as the Polish Marco Polo there. Previously, many of his works were unknown or erroneously attributed to other authors." - writes de hab. Kamil Zeidler, Prof. UG.

Edward Kajdansky`s book is an item that will not only delight with a beautiful edition, but with an interesting narrative entirely led by the author. Together with him we follow the trail of Michal Boym and together discover the Polish Marco Polo. Also noteworthy are the interesting illustrations.
