The Witnesses' Uprising Reports
Uprising Memoirs of Henryka Zarzycka-Dziakowska
We wish to encourage you to read the memoirs of almost 17-year-old messenger and nurse of the battalion "Parasol". Thanks to a diary with a silk cover and roses' ornament that had been taken from the crashed shop-window she used to describe systematically, day by day, the Old Town hell on earth experienced by her and her friends. What she was to experience later turned out to be equally aching. edited by: Maciej Janaszek-Seydlitz
