The Forgotten Battlefield by Kazimirz Wierzynski

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1944. Roy Publishers. 1st English Edition. Illustrated.

Translated from Polish by Edmund Ordon. Illustrations by Zdzisla Czermanski

In September 1939, after the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany, Wierzyński and his wife Helena escaped from Poland and, via Romania, Yugoslavia, Italy, and France, eventually reached the USA, where they stayed for almost twenty years.

His later works, written in exile, are more somber and socially conscious. The Bitter Crop (1933) includes poems about the United States. His Forgotten Battlefield (1944) contains narratives of World War II.
