Why read it?

There are far fewer studies in English on the Nazi occupation of Poland and the suffering and depredations that Poles faced during those more than five years of occupation.
This academic study does not merely cover the Holocaust in Poland but how the occupation affected millions of non-Jewish Poles as well.
