Trail of Hope

This work by historian Norman Davies tells the extraordinary story of the Polish II Corps, also known as "Anders Army," which was formed from Poles imprisoned in Siberian labor camps after the invasion of Poland in 1939. Drawing on extensive research and firsthand accounts, the narrative chronicles their remarkable journey from captivity through Iran, the Middle East, North Africa, and ultimately to the Italian battlefields during World War II. It offers a compelling and detailed account of one of the war's most fascinating episodes.
