Original Wraps. 8vo. 477 pages. 24 cm. First edition. In Polish. 'Diary from the Years of Occupation, 1939-44'. Diary of Zygmunt Klukowski (1885- 1959) , a doctor in the town of Szcebrezezyn, in the southeastern corner of Poland, who saw brief service in the military in 1939. After the defeat by the Nazis, he returned home, where, through untiring perseverance and dedication, he kept the local hospital in operation during the entire war. He maintained his diary despite constant harassment by the Nazis, crafting each entry with a balance and care that is quietly moving and historically invaluable.
