Özet

There is a chapter of World War II history that remains largely untold: the story of the fourth largest Allied military of the war, and the only nation to have fought in the battles of Leningrad, Arnhem, Tobruk, and Normandy.

This is the story of the Polish forces during the Second World War, the story of millions of young men and women who gave everything for freedom and in the final victory lost all. In a cruel twist of history, the monumental struggles of an entire nation have been largely forgotten, and even intentionally obscured.

No Greater Ally redresses the balance, giving a comprehensive overview of Poland's participation in World War II. Following their valiant but doomed defense of Poland in 1939, members of the Polish armed forces fought with the Allies wherever and however they could. This title provides a detailed analysis of the devastation the war brought to Poland, and the final betrayal when, having fought for freedom for six long years, Poland was handed to the Soviet Union.

A history that definitely needed writing! And one, all too relevant in 2024! This made me sad and ashamed of my country! Much respect to the Polish!

A tragic tale!

Great 2ww history about straggling Polish people. one thing tho, why there is mention of gen. Sikorski's mysterious death?

Good to hear the story written by non Polish

When will the history books be rewritten to include Poland as ‘The’ major fighting force throughout WW2 ? Nothing phased them, and then they were betrayed and occupied. This book is an eye opener. I’ve found a new respect for Poland and its armed forces.

Wow.

It reads more like an adventure story than a grown up history so it will sell well. The narration is quite melodramatic but reflects the style of writing well. he enunciates clearly and is easy to follow. A good pace.

Poland needs proper and full recognition for its place in WW2. it needs proper well written historical works which tell that history. This book does not do that.
it contains historical inaccuracies, holds on to some fallacies long since proven to be propaganda. it is particularly hateful towards the French. The Poles won the battle of Britain, single handed broke the casino line and were the only one capable of closing the Falaise gap etc., It's over the top and detracts from the memory of The Poles who fought with our forebears against such foulness.
I thought at a few points his research regards the conduct of the war as a whole came from old American books and various fictional films.
It is something of a puerile effort. Which is a shame as Poland needs recognition, and several properly researched books so we can truly understand and appreciate their actual contribution to Allied success.

Author made no great effort to research properly.
