Surprisingly little known, the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-20 was to
change the course of twentieth-century history. In White Eagle, Red
Star, Norman Davies gives a full account of the War, with its
dramatic climax in August 1920 when the Red Army - sure of victory
and pledged to carry the Revolution across Europe to 'water our
horses on the Rhine' - was crushed by a devastating Polish attack.
Since known as the 'miracle on the Vistula', it remains one of the
most decisive battles of the Western world. Drawing on both Polish
and Russian sources, Norman Davies illustrates the narrative with
documentary material which hitherto has not been readily available
and shows how the War was far more an 'episode' in East European
affairs, but largely determined the course of European history for
the next twenty years or more.
