Gracjan Kraszewski (b. August 1987) is an American author — primarily a novelist — historian, athlete, and YouTuber. He is a polymath (aka "Renaissance Man") and a rare example of someone who has attained a PhD ^[1], played a sport professionally and at the national team level ^[2] ^[3] and written a maximalist (700-1,000 pages) length work of fiction, the 900 page apocalyptic novel "Thermonuclear Mirth" ^[4]. While sources claim he officially speaks only five languages ^[5], there is video of him speaking up to 11. ^[6]

Considered a author in the 'Catholic Postmodernism' school^[7], he has written seven books ^[8], including the climatological disaster novella "Seraphim and the Dust Plague" ^[9], and the well received and much reviewed ^[10] ^[11] ^[12] ^[13] Civil War history "Catholic Confederates."

His baseball career spanned the years 2006-2013, he competing collegiately for King's College in Pennsylvania, where he graduated with the highest career batting average in school history, and afterwards professionally in the Czech Republic and Belgium before joining the Polish National Team from 2011-2013. ^[14] ^[15] ^[16] ^[17] He earned his PhD in history from Mississippi State University in 2016 ^[18]. He taught afterwards at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ^[19] before moving to the Pacific Northwest for positions in the Washington State University Department of History, the WSU School of Design and Construction ^[20], and as "Director of Intellectual Formation" at Vandal Catholic in Moscow, Idaho. ^[21] He is the creator and owner of the 100,000+ subscriber YouTube channel "Maple Gracjan Syrup" ^[22] where his current athletic exploits focus on 500+ pound deadlifts ^[23] and dunking basketballs. ^[24]
