The first episode is about my greatgreatgreat grandfather's library which was exceptional. Poland didn't exist at that time as an independent state (it was 19. century) but the culture was so strong, that my ancestors who came to the region of Galicja quickly started feeling Polish, picked up the language. Two generations later, one of them, Andrew Reichard, despite the German surname was killed in a German concentration camp just because he was Polish. This episode, however, is about Andrzej's grandfather - Franz or Franciszek. He was one of the first of Reichards family who came to Galicja. When I learnt about his stunning book collection, I immediately understood where my book addiction comes from!
