Book Description
On-the-ground account of the opening campaign of World War II Told from the perspective of the Germans who conquered Poland Based on letters, diaries, official documents, histories, and newspapers At dawn on September 1, 1939, the Germans launched their land, air, and sea assault on Poland, sparking the great conflagration of World War II and shocking the world with the speed and ferocity of their blitzkrieg. With thundering panzers and screaming dive-bombers, they crushed the vital port of Danzig into submission, drove the Polish Air Force from the skies, and took Warsaw amid great bloodshed. After six weeks of brave resistance, the Poles surrendered, no match for the Nazi war machine.

Book Description
On August 23, 1939, Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, a secret protocol which divided all of Central Europe between the two totalitarian states. The stage was set for the outbreak of the Second World War in Europe, which came on September 1, 1939 when the Germans invaded Poland in an operation designated Fall Weiss (Case White). However, despite its significance, the actual military campaign for Poland has not been well covered in histories of the Second World War, an many significant misconceptions remain- notably that the Luftwaffe destroyed the Polish Air Force at the beginning of the war, that Polish military doctrine was outdated and foolish, and that the Polish armed forces were equipped with obsolete equipment and lacked the means to develop modern weapons. In Case White, author Robert Forczyk challenges these misconceptions and examines the campaign in the context of sources from both the German and Polish sides to expand and update our understanding of the opening campaign of the Second World War in Europe.-- book jacket

Book Description
The German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, marked the beginning of World War II in Europe. If the outcome of the campaign was predictable, its conduct was not. The Polish campaign introduced the world to a new style of warfare: Blitzkrieg.

Book Description
The German attack on Poland precipitated World War II, making the Polish campaign one of particular significance to the student of the 1939-45 conflict. The lessons learned by the German Army in its operations in Poland were put to use in the later campaigns against the western Allies, the Balkan states, and the Soviet Union. Poland also formed the testing ground for new theories on the use of armored forces and close air support of ground troops. The complete destruction of the Polish state and the removal of Poland from the map of eastern Europe were grim portents of the fate of the vanquished in the new concept of total war. The purpose of this campaign study is to provide the United States Army with a factual account of German military operations against Poland, based on source material from captured records currently in the custody of The Adjutant General, Department of the Army; monographs prepared by a number of former German officers for the Historical Division, United States Army, Europe; and such Polish accounts as were available. -- Abstract.
