The history of Poland is a fascinating story of a people
struggling to achieve nationhood in the face of internal and
external conflict. Poland became a unified Christian state in AD
966 and by the 12th century a knightly class had emerged - a
force that was integral to the defence of Poland against
increasingly frequent foreign invasions. Intent on crushing
rival Christian states, the Templars, Hospitallers and Teutonic
Knights all mounted attacks but were beaten back by the Poles,
as were invading Mongols and Turks. This book reveals the
organisation, equipment and battle histories of the medieval
Polish armies as they developed and modernised to emerge as one
of the dominant powers of Eastern Europe. |Constantly Saving Our
