Never Surrender: Poland's Long War
Mark Johnson
Poland's fate in the early days of the Blitzkrieg in 1939 is well-known, but the struggles of the Poles who escaped the Nazis and were deported to the Gulag by the Soviets, or who went underground in order to fight another day, have been largely forgotten.
Many of those who fought back against Nazism came from a group of more than one million Poles deported to slave labor camps in the USSR. This book recounts the story of the airmen, soldiers and sailors, women and children who were scattered as widely as Scotland, Siberia, Persia, Kenya, Mexico, India, and Australia, but who jointly made their stand against tyranny.
This amazing story of courage and fortitude is told using a range of previously unpublished witness accounts set against a sweeping historical backdrop that goes far beyond most academic texts in the way in which it brings history vividly to life.
