Historical story

"With Błyskawica to Tigers". A bitter account of the Warsaw insurgent

The insurgent's diary, saved from oblivion, is a unique and exceptional testimony of the dramatic days in every respect. The records take us to the times of the Warsaw uprising of 1944.

The author was fifteen when the war started. He quickly became involved in the conspiracy to stand with a "lightning bolt" in his hand in the protection of the Home Army Headquarters when the Warsaw Uprising broke out.
