- Pamiętnik_handlowca abstract "Pamiętnik handlowca ("A Merchantilist's memoir") was a diary written by Polish merchant Zbigniew Stefanski in 1625. It is written in "old polish". His memoir contains a firsthand account of the Jamestown Colony in Virginia. It is the only extant primary source from the Jamestown Colony from the perspective of the Polish artisans brought in by John Smith in 1608. His memoir surfaced in Chicago, Illinois in 1947 when a person offered to sell it to Mieczyslaw Haiman, then director of the Polish Museum of Chicago. The memoir revealed much about the Jamestown colony, and detailed stories about how Polish settlers taught the pioneers how to dig wells for drinking water, fought a strike for their right to vote, and introduced the settlers to baseball. The book also confirmed the names of the six Polish settlers in Jamestown, which had previously been known only from secondary sources often written over 100 years later. Stefanski's memoir also changed the perception of Jamestown history; it is known from primary English sources that the Poles were hired as skilled artisans, but in Stefanski's memoir, the 6 men were merchants (or at least trading officials) in Poland.".
