Reviews
"...widely viewed as the best single-volume general history of Poland." -- Richard Bernstein, The New York Times, "Davies is the foremost historian of modern Poland. Of his previous books, God's Playground: A History of Poland is widely regarded as a landmark account." -- Carlo D'Este, New York Times Book Review, "He offers one of the best histories of the country. It is a book that reads, not as non-fiction history, but as a popular novel of our times." -- Polish American Journal

    Detailed history of Poland

    He is not a good writer. Some parts are difficult to read and others aren't bad. It is a very detailed history.

    Excellent!

    This book is excellent if you want you learn more about Poland. Prof. Norman Davies is a great historian, who did a lot of research and really tried to understand the history of this great nation.
