Fighting Warsaw is an extraordinary human story. The author, leader of the Polish Underground State, portrays the years of the German occupation during the second world war, and the beginning of the anti-Soviet underground activities thereafter. His story presents the entire organisation, strategy and tactics of the Polish underground, which included armed resistance, civil disobedience, sabotage, and boycotts. This new edition contains an introduction by his wife Zofia as well as 16 pages of previously unpublished personal photographs.
"...excellent story...of a long war which should find a space on anyone's bookshelf" - Armchair Auctions, December 2004.
