This gazetteer was published between 1880 to 1902 under the direction of
Filip Sulimierski. It is an excellent gazetteer for locating places in the
areas of Poland, both present and past. Coverage includes all localities in
the former Polish provinces of Russia, most localities in the former
Austrian province of Galicia (now divided between Poland and the Ukraine),
Belorussian provinces of the Russian Empire (now in the Republic of
Belarus), and also contains significant localities in other Slavic and
eastern European nations; Russia, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary,
Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania. While the information is a
bit less comprehensive, localities from the provinces of Poznan, West
Prussia, East Prussia, Silesia, and Pomerania are also covered.
