Carpatho-Rusyn Historical Resource: Mago

Description

June Sommer brought the following to my attention at he CGSI conference:

Dr. Magocsi, a pre-eminent scholar of Carpatho-Rusyn history, has uploaded to archive.org, his private collection of over 20,000 books and periodicals.  While most of these are not in English, they are an important collection of material dating from the 17th century to the present.

The Paul Robert Magocsi Carpatho-Ruthenica Library collection is accessed (for free) here:   The Paul Robert Magocsi Carpatho-Ruthenica Library : Free Texts : Free Download, Borrow and Streaming : Internet Archive

Dr. Magocsi has published dozens of English-language books on Carpatho-Rusyns.  Many of these are still in print and available for purchase.

In time, I plan to develop an article that explains which of these can be useful to family researchers as they explore what life was like back in the day.
