Palczowski, John
Traveler and author. Made great peregrinations in all parts of the world including the East and West Indies. In 1609 published Muscovite Carol (Kolenda Moskiewska), where he writes about his travels to the East and West Indies. Palczowski may have been the first Pole to visit the New World.
