Summary of George Bruce's The Warsaw Uprising

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 On September 1, 1939, Hitler invaded Poland with fifty-eight divisions, fourteen of which were armored or motorized. Poland put into the field only thirty divisions, mostly cavalry and infantry, with just one motorized brigade.

#2 The Polish General Staff, led by Romer, had unrealistic strategic ideas stemming from a foreign policy that had seen Soviet Russia as the real enemy and Germany as a possible ally. These ideas led to the country’s defeat.

#3 The Defense of Warsaw Committee was set up to defend Warsaw, and in four days, while the Nazis pounded the city with bombs and shells, they were able to recruit thousands of citizen soldiers. But the city surrendered on 1 October when it was almost without food or water.

#4 The country was totally destroyed by the Nazis. The Nazi terror regime began. Through the battle-scarred city, German soldiers in fine uniforms goose-stepped in long columns. The Polish people were prostrate.
