The Rape of Poland: Pattern of Soviet Aggression
Book information
Description
First published in 1948, this is the inside story by the former head of the Polish Government in Exile, and more recently head of the Peasants’ Party in Poland, which tried to find a way to co-operate with the Soviets. “A raging question in Poland has become, ‘How long will it take them to communize us completely?’ “To my mind, however, the question is badly framed. I am convinced that human beings cannot be converted to communism if that conversion is attempted while the country concerned is under Communist rule. Under Communist dictatorship the majority become slaves—but men born in freedom, though they may be coerced, can never be convinced. Communism is an evil which is embraced only by fools and idealists not under the actual heel of such rule. “The question should be phrased: How long can a nation under Communist rule survive the erosion of its soul?”—Stanislaw Mikolajczyk, Preface Preface, vii Chapter One: THE PEACELESS V—E, 1 Chapter Two: THE RAPE, 4 Chapter Three: ALLY, 14 Chapter Four: KATYN, 28 Chapter Five: LOSS OF A PATRIOT AND MORE, 39 Chapter Six: BETRAYAL, 66 Chapter Seven: ANATOMY OF APPEASEMENT, 91 Chapter Eight: YALTA, 106 Chapter Nine: REVERIE, 121 Chapter Ten: A “PEOPLES’ DEMOCRACY”, 124 Chapter Eleven: HOME, 130 Chapter Twelve: THE INTIMIDATION BEGINS, 145 Chapter Thirteen: REFERENDUM, 161 Chaplet Fourteen: FREE AND UNFETTERED, 180 Chapter Fifteen: SOVIETIZATION, 203 Chapter Sixteen: THE TIGHTENING VISE, 222 Chapter Seventeen: THE FINAL STRAWS, 230 Chapter Eighteen: ESCAPE, 243 Chapter Nineteen: CONCLUSION, 251 APPENDIX, 259 INDEX, 299
