At twelve, Jadwiga finds herself facing a life-altering dilemma, pitting the desires of her heart against her political responsibilities. Should she marry her true love, the Duke of Austria, or give him up for the good of Poland, Eastern Europe, and the greater glory of God? Jadwiga is called to put her desires aside to fulfill the plan of God. Will she be able to answer the call? Her faith leads her to choose the "more excellent way," ushering in achievements and an influence of peace beyond her imagination. With a lasting impact beyond the Middle Ages, her sacrifice is acknowledged throughout history as Jadwiga's Ring.
Book Synopsis Jadwiga, Poland’s Great Queen by : Charlotte Kellogg
Download or read book Jadwiga, Poland’s Great Queen written by Charlotte Kellogg and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-02 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HERE is the story of a great love and a great sacrifice and of a queen’s work built on that sacrifice. It takes us back five hundred years, to the brilliant court of that King Louis of Hungary who ruled the half of Europe—the court where his gifted youngest daughter, Jadwiga, grew up. It takes us to Vienna, for Jadwiga was betrothed to the young Crown Prince of Austria. Then to Krakow, early capital of Poland, where Jadwiga was called as queen and where she made her supreme renunciation. Through it and her marriage with the Lithuanian Grand Duke, Jagiello, she brought the last pagan people of Europe into the fold of the Western Church, and raised a barrier against the eastern push of the German soldiers of the Cross, which made possible a Poland stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Thenceforth the union of Poland and Lithuania was known as the “Wedding ring of Jadwiga.” Through darkest days she kept her faith, until she was reverenced throughout Europe for her holiness and admired for her wisdom. Like Joan of Arc in France, she has been in Poland a symbol of national aspiration and a source of national idealism. This book represents years of travel and research and has already been accepted by the Polish historical congress. It is important as history and interesting also as the love story of a great woman.

Book Synopsis The Tiger from Poznań by : Richard Siegert
Download or read book The Tiger from Poznań written by Richard Siegert and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Second World War, Poznań was a key river crossing and railway junction on the Polish-German border. When the alarm was given indicating the Red Army's approach in January 1945, the city's 80-100,000 German civilians were speedily evacuated, leaving a garrison of some 15,000 men, mostly poorly-armed infantry, to face the rigors of a siege conducted by a massively superior and ruthless enemy anxious to acquire this transport center, which was vital for the advance on Berlin. This is the account of Eastern Front veteran Richard Siegert, the gunner and later commander of the defenders' sole Tiger tank. Since the death of the driver in a futile attempt to escape from a PoW camp in Russia just after the end of the war, Siegert is the only survivor of that crew able to pass its record on to posterity. His account details how the crew fought gallantly against impossible odds, even when the Tiger was immobilized and could only act as a stationary antitank gun post or pillbox during the last heroic days' fighting for the citadel.
