Synopsis :

An in-depth history of the Polish soldiers who served in World War 2, with previously unpublished first-hand accounts and rare photographs.

There is a chapter of World War II history that remains largely untold; the monumental struggles of an entire nation have been forgotten, and even intentionally obscured. This book gives a full overview of Poland's participation in World War II. Following their valiant but doomed defence of Poland in 1939, members of the Polish armed forces fought with the Allies wherever and however they could.

Full of previously unpublished accounts, and rare photographs, this title provides a detailed analysis of the devastation the war brought to Poland, and the final betrayal when, having fought for freedom for six long years, Poland was handed to the Soviet Union.

À propos de l'auteur: Ken Koskodan graduated from Michigan State University with a degree in Communications, specialising in Journalism, Advertising and Public Relations. Of Polish descent, he has researched Poland's participation in World War II for many years, and in the course of his research has interviewed many surviving veterans.
