Reviews

"""Christopher Garbowski's elegant book is an intelligent and bracing examination of the challenge posed to Ukraine, Poland, and the West by the war unleashed by Russia, and its broader historical implications. It gives a thoughtful analysis of the recovery of resources--political, military, patriotic, and spiritual--needed for the rescue of civilization from the resurgence of barbarism."" --Neal Pease, professor emeritus of history, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee ""As Christopher Garbowski argues in his excellent book, dealing with the threat coming from an aggressive empire is not just a matter of military and economic strength. It is, above all, the spiritual power of a society, which depends mainly on historical experience and the ability to draw on cultural resources. This explains Poland's stance and determines Poland's extraordinary role in the face of not only the Russian invasion of Ukraine but also the moral disarmament of the West."" --Zbigniew Stawrowski, professor of political science, Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University in Warsaw"
