This colourful book presents World War II through a combination of world stamps, historical facts and hand-drawn maps. Presents the military campaigns of the Polish Armed Forces along with those events that helped to shape the outcome of the second world war, most specifically those events that led to Poland becoming a totalitarian, communist state. An informative philatelic history that will broaden your knowledge of WWII. Serves as a short and concise reference book that has a greater appeal for history enthusiasts than those stamp collectors who prefer extremely high resolution images.
