## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good book or rare historical war
*by J***G on November 29, 2014*

It is about time this war in history is available for people to read about, Very few American's know about this war and todays generation does not care either way. However if you like history this book is worth buying on this rare topic of the Polish Russian war 1919-1921 . Very nice color plates and basic but not complete battles that took place. And the surprising amount of nations fighting during this war Polish , Russians , Ukrainians, etc. Even American volunteers to help Poland fight the Russians. Poland won this war against Russia and saved Europe from Communism at this time in history. There were many battles during this war and the Cavalry was a major force on both sides unlike the first world war in the West which played a very minor role . In the East the Cavalry ruled the battlefield , yes even in 1920 with excellent success in battles won. However that is the only problem with this book , It shows no Cavalrymen on horses Not Polish or Russian , so we do not get a good overall view of the uniforms . This book is just plain basics on this war topic , to be complete would require more volumes or a thick complete hardcover book. Even so I am glad Osprey made this book available and I am glad to have it in my collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Reference, Well Illustrated, but....
*by B***K on August 27, 2020*

It contains all the maps, illustrations, and detailed info about the war left out of other histories of this war.It is not an in-depth history, but a stunningly vital supplement to such, as Osprey Book usually are.I recommend that you read Norman Davies' White Eagle, Red Star-The Polish-Soviet War 1919-20 (2nd Ed 2011), Adam Zamoyski's Warsaw 1920-Lenin's Failed Conquest Of Europe (2008), and especially Antoni Lenkiewicz's Josef Pisudski: Hero of Poland. Poland takes a bad rap on its military, but a close look shows that it one-on one fights with invading enemies, it usually won, or even when dealing with the Germans at the beginning of WWII, it fought them to a standstill. When it lost its independence in the 1790's, and September 17, 1939 (the Soviets invaded almost three weeks after the Germans), it was only because two or more enemies ganged up on it. If you're Polish buy this book, if not for yourself, then for your kids.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Osprey always delivers
*by A***Y on June 19, 2020*

This is a standard, first-rate Osprey product. I increased my tiny knowledge of the events by a substantial amount. As usual with Osprey, the coverage of uniforms and equipment is lavish.
