Book Synopsis Medieval Polish Armies 966–1500 by : David Nicolle
Download or read book Medieval Polish Armies 966–1500 written by David Nicolle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02-20 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Poland is a fascinating story of a people struggling to achieve nationhood in the face of internal and external conflict. Poland became a unified Christian state in AD 966 and by the 12th century a knightly class had emerged a force that was integral to the defence of Poland against increasingly frequent foreign invasions. Intent on crushing rival Christian states, the Templars, Hospitallers and Teutonic Knights all mounted attacks but were beaten back by the Poles, as were invading Mongols and Turks. This book reveals the organisation, equipment and battle histories of the medieval Polish armies as they developed and modernised to emerge as one of the dominant powers of Eastern Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 17th century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was almost as varied as modern America. Alongside Slavs lived Lithuanians and other Balts, Germans, Tatars, Armenian merchants, Jewish traders, and even a remarkably large populations of Scots. This variety of cultures had a strong influence on the Polish army. Along with the predominantly Polish and Lithuanian 'winged' hussars served numerous foreigners from both within and outside the Commonwealth: Tatars and Cossacks, Wallachians, Transylvanians, Moldavians, Hungarians, Serbians and Albanians; and from the West, French, Italians, Dutch, Walloons, Swedes and Scots.

Book Synopsis Armies of the Russo-Polish War 1919–21 by : Nigel Thomas
Download or read book Armies of the Russo-Polish War 1919–21 written by Nigel Thomas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1917 Poland was recognised as a state by Russia, but the Bolshevik coup threatened this. The Polish leader Marshal Pilsudski hurried to build an army around Polish World War I veterans, and in 1918 war broke out for Poland's independence, involving the the Poles, the Red and White Russian armies, at least two different Ukrainian forces, and Allied intervention troops. The armies that fought these campaigns were extraordinarily varied in their uniforms and insignia, equipment and weapons, and when peace was signed in 1921, Poland had achieved recognised nationhood for the first time since 1794. Featuring specially commissioned full-colour artwork, this engaging study explains and illustrates the armies that fought in the epic struggle for the rebirth of the independent Polish nation, in the bitter aftermath of World War I.
Book Synopsis Polish Armies 1569–1696 (1) by : Richard Brzezinski
Download or read book Polish Armies 1569–1696 (1) written by Richard Brzezinski and published by Osprey Publishing. This book was released on 1987-04-23 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people will realise that at one time the Polish state was one of Europe's great powers. One of the chief instruments of her success was undoubtedly her army, which though small can claim many accomplishments and major successes in the 16th and 17th centuries. Richard Brzezinski redresses this imbalance by providing a portrait of Polish armies from 1569-1696, detailing their history, organisation, arms, armour, insignia and dress, accompanied by numerous illustrations and eight superb full page colour plates by Angus McBride.
Book Synopsis Napoleon’s Polish Lancers of the Imperial Guard by : Ronald Pawly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws on original regimental records to give by far the most detailed account ever published in English of the organization and personalities of the most renowned of the foreign units that served in the Emperor's armies.

Book Synopsis Polish Armies of the Partitions 1770–94 by : Vincent W. Rospond
Download or read book Polish Armies of the Partitions 1770–94 written by Vincent W. Rospond and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-20 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tragic national epic of Polish history began in these late 18th-century wars. Under Poland's Saxon monarchy, Russia and Prussia constantly meddled in the affairs of the Kingdom. In 1768 a civil war broke out between pro-Russian 'Commonwealth' Poles and 'Confederate' patriots who opposed foreign intervention; Russia intervened directly, and the First Partition followed in 1772. Guerrilla resistance continued, and anti-Russian political moves were snuffed out by a second Russian invasion in 1792. Following a Second Partition between Russia and Prussia in 1793, Poland's national hero Thaddeus Kosciusko led a national uprising against the invaders in April 1794. After remarkable victories against the odds at Raclawice and Warsaw, the patriots were finally defeated by the combined armies of Prussia and Russia at Maciejowice. This led to the Third Partition of 1795, between Prussia, Russia, and Austria, and Poland ceased to exist as a political nation. Featuring specially commissioned full-color illustrations, this is the epic story of Poland's doomed struggle to remain independent in the face of aggression from its neighbours in the late 18th century.
