Rising '44 Paperback book

Rising '44

by Norman Davies

Rising '44 is a brilliant narrative account of one of the most dramatic episodes in 20th century history, drawing on Davies' unique understanding of the issues and characters involved. In August 1944, Warsaw offered the Wehrmacht the last line of defence against the Red Army's march from Moscow to Berlin. When the Red Army reached the river Vistula, the people of Warsaw believed that liberation had come. The Resistance took to the streets in celebration, but the Soviets remained where they were, allowing the Wehrmacht time to regroup and Hitler to order that the city of Warsaw be razed to the ground. For 63 days, the Resistance fought on in the cellars and the sewers. Defenceless citizens were slaughtered in their tens of thousands. One by one the City's monuments were reduced to rubble, watched by Soviet troops on the other bank of the river. The Allies expressed regret but decided that there was nothing to be done, Poland would not be allowed to be governed by Poles. The sacrifice was in vain and the Soviet tanks rolled in to the flattened city. It is a hugely dramatic story, vividly and authoritatively told by one of our greatest historians.

Exact ISBN/item shown. Better than acceptable condition but with definite wear. Good, solid reading condition with moderate to considerable use. Cover shows fading to lettering and bends/small curl to corners. Clean pages show very slight age-tone; NO writing or tears--some slight curl to tips of some page corners near front/back. Minor wear/aging to closed edges--though there is one mis-bound page that is too large and sticks out on one side. Binding shows wear, some weakness due to significant spine creasing, but remains intact. Perfectly fine reading copy despite flaws noted. See more details about Rising `44: the Battle for Warsaw
