Hurra Po Polsku

Where can I buy these books?
I cannot find them on Amazon.co.uk (or even USA Amazon), The Washington DC Polish Embassy sells them but, like the course they run, they expect major money!

Mail Order, new or used.

Also OSCAR E SWAN, University of Pittsburgh, First Year Polish.
The website is awesome but as anyone used the published books rather than printing the pdf's?

So you are part of the Prolog team, Krzysztof?
I'm seriously considering choosing Prolog for the two week intensive, residential Polish language course I plan on taking in October.

Why should I opt for prolog rather than another Krakow summer school?
Come on.... Sell it to me.

(By the way, the books look excellent but instruction in English appear to be lacking. Am I misunderstanding something?)

no, I just copy&pasted the text from the second link (
sorry to disappoint you :)

instruction in English appear to be lacking. Am I misunderstanding something

it looks like the whole content of this web page is translated into English (I haven't checked the German version), so if something is missing in English it probably means you won't find that info in Polish either

The web page is in English but the sample pages from the books appear to contain none. That was my meaning.

Thanks for your help.

I am probably a bit late for this topic, but I thought I would give my recommendation for this course to anyone else considering it.

I did a two-week course at the school in April and it was great. All the staff were very helpful at setting up my accomodation and helping me get around the City. The teachers and guides used were helpful and enthusiastic. The family I stayed with were very kind and the house was nice and close to the school.

The cultural visits were great too especially the Jewish concert and restaurant we visited in Kazimierz and the trip to Zakopane and the Tatra mountains

Only reservations:-
1) The classes are only in Polish so I would recommend knowing some Polish before you go (Although all the teachers do speak English if you get really stuck)

2) The school is about an hours' walk from the old town, so learn to use the tram

a lot of great recommendations

And all of them seem to have been posted by you today, which would suggest that the school is finding it hard to attract new students.
