God's playground : a history of Poland in two volumes. Vol. 1, Origins to 1795
Davies, Norman, 1939-1981
Books
The writing of Polish history, like Poland itself, has frequently fallen prey to interested parties. By adopting a sceptical stance towards all existing interpretations, Norman Davies has attempted to bring a strong dose of common sense to his theme. In these two volumes, he presents the most comprehensive survey in English of this frequently maligned, and usually misunderstood, country.
