From Library Journal:
British author and journalist Ascherson has written an excellent introduction to modern Polish history appropriate for general readers and newcomers to Polish history.This relatively brief study, first published in Britain as a companion to a TV series, surveys 20th-century Poland with succinct, impartial clarity and verve. Dozens of well-chosen photos accompany the text. Ascherson foregoes scholarly apparatus and offers only the thinnest bibliographic guide to further reading. Highly recommended for public libraries.James B. Street, Santa Cruz P.L., Cal.
