Book summary

Michener provides a sweeping, educational 700-year history of Poland, making it come alive with an array of characters and situations.

Media Reviews


"The result [of Michener's research] is a novelization of the last 700 years of the country's history, including several invasions and partitionings, the Nazi occupation during World War II, and a modern struggle of farmers attempting to form a labor union."

   -- Candace Cloutier, Contemporary Authors

Publisher Notes


Poland's history from the thirteenth century to modern times overshadows a 1981 dispute between Janko Buk, the leader of a group of militant farmers, and Szymon Bukowski, the communist Minister of Agriculture.
