The Polish Experience through World War II
The Polish Experience through World War II explores Polish history through the lives of people touched by the war. The touching and terrible experiences of these people are laid bare by straightforward, first-hand accounts, including not only the hardships of deportation and concentration and refugee camps, but also the price paid by the officers killed or taken as prisoners during WWII and the families they left behind. Ziolkowska-Boehm reveals the difficulties of these women and children when, having lost their husbands and fathers, their travails take them through Siberia, Persia, India, and then Africa, New Zealand, or Mexico. Ziolkowska-Boehm recounts the experiences of individuals who ...
The Polish Deportees of World War II
Among the great tragedies that befell Poland during World War II was the forced deportation of its citizens by the Soviet Union during the first Soviet occupation of that country between 1939 and 1941. This is the story of that brutal Soviet ethnic cleansing campaign told in the words of some of the survivors. It is an unforgettable human drama of excruciating martyrdom in the Gulag. For example, one witness reports: "A young woman who had given birth on the train threw herself and her newborn under the wheels of an approaching train." Survivors also tell the story of events after the "amnesty." "Our suffering is simply indescribable. We have spent weeks now sleeping in lice-infested dirty rags in train stations," wrote the Milewski family. Details are also given on the non-European countries that extended a helping hand to the exiles in their hour of need.
Exiled to Siberia
September 1, 1939, promised to be another beautiful late summer day. Hank slowly walked to his aunt's house for one of her treats anxiously awaiting her call to come in. Already the smell of boiling chocolate wafted through the open kitchen window. "I hope she puts lemon sauce on it," he thought.
De Lwów a León
En la primera mitad del siglo XX se vivieron dos grandes guerras en el continente europeo que costaron millones de vidas y forzaron la reubicación de millones más. Esta emotiva narrativa en primera persona muestra a hombres y mujeres que vivieron esa situación tenían vidas reales y fueron protagonista de la historia muy a su pesar. De Lwów a León es hoy más actual que nunca: la guerra en Ucrania es un reflejo de la invasión soviética a Polonia en 1939. Este libro nos invita a entenderla a través de la historia de Władysław Rattinger, un ingeniero polaco, políglota y carismático, que vivió la brutalidad del conflicto bélico, fue obligado al trabajo forzado en condiciones extremas, se unió a la resistencia y salvó a cientos de polacos al traerlos a México.
