A Question of Honor: The Kosciuszko Squadron: Forgotten Heroes of World War II by Lynne Olson

4.0

This book tells a story that truly needs to be told - that of Polish pilots fighting side-by-side with the British. Poles get so little credit for their war efforts, and due to politics, and Britain's and the U.S. alliance with Jozef Stalin, Poland continued to receive no credit under three generations of Russian communism that prohibited honoring and Polish heroes. I got about three-quarters of the way through. I found the level of detail a little tedious, as it went into every mission, every flight, every statistic. The book reflects a tremendous amount of research and factual detail. The effort is worthy, the story a must-read, but if you skim through each battle scene, you'll get into more of the character of the Poles.
