Poland: A History by Adam Zamoyski
As Adam Zamoyski set out to update The Polish Way, his bestselling first history of Poland, he realized the task required not so much re-writing as re-thinking the known facts well as the assumptions of the past. The events of the last twenty years and the growth of the independent Polish state allowed him to look at Poland's past with a fresh eye. Tracing Poland's complex development from the Middle Ages to present day, Zamoyski examines the country's political, economic, and military struggles, as well as its culture, art, and richly varied society through the ages, bringing the major events and characters in Poland's history to life.Adam Zamoyski is the author of multiple award-winning works about Poland, Napoleon, and nineteenth-century Europe. Zamoyski lives in London and contributes to the London Times, Daily Telegraph, and Guardian. He is a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, the Royal Society of Arts, and the Royal Society of Literature.
