Piłsudski with delivery to Ireland

„Piłsudski” is the next volume, after „Paderewski” and „Mościcki”, in the series devoted to the outstanding politicians of the Second Polish Republic. Józef Piłsudski was undoubtedly one of the most distinguished figures in Polish history and culture. As early as the end of the 19th century, as a young conspirator, he effectively encouraged people to fight the partitioning powers for the Polish and workers' cause. Deeply concerned for the fate of the nation, he led riflemen and legionaries into clashes with the Russian army. The victorious Battle of Warsaw in August 1920 only strengthened Piłsudski's position, including on the international stage. He was not only an outstanding strategist and statesman, but also an exceptionally charismatic person. None of the politicians of the day enjoyed such respect, trust and affection. This richly illustrated album, with an introduction by the well-known historian and essayist Professor Andrzej Chwalba, presents Piłsudski's political activity and private life in almost two hundred photographs.
