Tykocin, Poland: A new book

Mark Halpern, coordinator of BialyGen SIG, has provided information on a new book written about the Polish community of Tykocin, which houses a Jewish museum in a 1650s synagogue.

Mogens Kjelgaard, a Swedish-born journalist living in Warsaw, has written a historical novel about this Jewish community, Tykocin, a World Destroyed.
His wife was born near the town and the author has a personal interest in the area.
