The Untold Story of Poland's Forces in World War II
At the end of World War II, Poland was betrayed by the Allies and handed over to the soviet union. In the final victory over Germany, the millions of men and women who had fought for their freedom for six long years were abandoned to soviet rule.
The fourth largest Allied military force deployed during the war, Poland is the only nation to have been involved at Leningrad, Arnhem, Tobruck, and Normandy. Following their valiant but doomed defense of Poland in 1939, members of the Polish armed forces fought wherever they could alongside other Allied forces, while at home the Poles created the most active and effective resistance force of the war.
Packed with previous unpublished first-hand accounts, this is the true story of Poland's armed forces and their courageous resistance, and the betrayal which ultimately saw them conquered, despite their victory over Germany.
