About this book
First published in 1939, Marshal Pilsudski presents a comprehensive biographical history of Józef Klemens Pi?sudski (1867-1935). He was a Polish statesman who served as the Chief of State (1918–1922) and first Marshal of Poland (from 1920). He was viewed as the father of the Second Polish Republic, which was re-established in 1918.
This book discusses various facets of his life such as birth and parentage (1867- 1877); life in Wilno (1875- 1885); undergraduate life (1885-1887); Pilsudski as P.P.S. agitator; Pilsudski in the Great War (1914); Pilsudski and the New Poland; Pilsudski and Parliament; the Polish crisis (1922); the Pilsudski question; constitutional friction (1928); Pilsudski in Madeira and Poland and his last triumphs. This is an important historical reference work for scholars and researchers of Polish history, World War I history, European history and Military history.
