Rezension
«La traduction en anglais de cet ouvrage, déjà considéré comme un classique en Pologne pour qui s'intéresse aux relations franco-polonaises à l'époque communiste, est bienvenue et permet à un public plus large de se familiariser avec une intéressante étude de cas de relations bilatérales entre deux pays liés par une tradition d'amitié que la guerre froide plaça de part et d'autre du rideau de fer.»
