Featuring specially commissioned full-color artwork, this engaging
study explains and illustrates the armies that fought in the epic
struggle for the rebirth of the independent Polish nation, in the
bitter aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution.
In 1917 Poland was recognized as a state by Russia, but the
Bolshevik coup threatened this. The Polish leader Marshal Pilsudski
hurried to build an army around Polish World War I veterans, and in
1918 war broke out for Poland's independence, involving the the
Poles, the Red and White Russian armies, at least two different
Ukrainian forces, and Allied intervention troops. The armies that
fought these campaigns were extraordinarily varied in their
uniforms and insignia, equipment and weapons, and when peace was
signed in 1921, Poland had achieved recognized nationhood for the
first time since 1794.
