13102 Saunders, Alan Invasion of Poland (Turning Points of World War II Series) Franklin Watts, Inc. New York, NY, U.S.A. 1984 Dust Jacket Near Fine Hard Cover Near Fine Black treated cloth on boards. Now in clear cover. "Early on the morning of September 1, 1939, German Panzer divisions spearheaded by motorcycles and armored cars, streamed across the Polish boarder. Two days later Britain and France declared war on Germany as Allies to the Poles. Then on September 17, Soviet troops came pouring across Poland's eastern border. Poland had fallen, crushed between the German anvil on the west and the Russian hammer on the east. World War II had begun. In the Invasion of Poland, author Alan Saunders surveys the history of Poland from its beginnings in the tenth century and chronicles the establishment of the Polish nation and the rise of the Third Reich after World War I. He describes the events which preceded the invasion of Poland in 1939; the fall of Austria, the surrender of Czechoslovakia, the secret treaties, and the tragic policies of nonintervention and appeasement followed by the European allies. And, he shows how the alliance of Germany and the Soviet Union with their policy of blitzkrieg and betrayal, brought Poland to her knees in defeat." $34.87AUD |
