In his first chapter, Gross lays out the horrors Poland suffered during WWII: The initial division of the country between Stalin and Hitler, the subsequent Nazi conquest, the horror of the Katyn massacre of Polish army officers by the Soviets, the Warsaw uprising of 1944 and the Soviet decision to postpone entering Warsaw until the German army had defeated the Polish Armia Krajowa, the destruction of Warsaw, reduced, "to a pile of rubble," and the abandonment of Poland by Britain and America at the Yalta Conference.
Chapter Two: The Unwelcoming of Jewish Survivors
