With elements of a spy thriller, documenting his experiences in the Polish Underground, and as one of the first accounts of the systematic slaughter of the Jews by the German Nazis, this volume is a remarkable testimony of one mans courage and a nations struggle for resistance against overwhelming oppression.</p><p>Karski was a brilliant young diplomat when war broke out in 1939 with Hitlers invasion of Poland. Taken prisoner by the Soviet Red Army, which had simultaneously invaded from the East, Karski narrowly escaped the subsequent Katyn Forest Massacre. He became a member of the Polish Underground, the most significant resistance movement in occupied Europe, acting as a liaison and courier between the Underground and the Polish government-in-exile. He was twice smuggled into the Warsaw Ghetto, and entered the Nazis Izbica transit camp disguised as a guard, witnessing first-hand the horrors of the Holocaust.</p><p>Karskis courage and testimony, conveyed in a breathtaking manner in <em>Story of a Secret State</em>, offer the narrative of one of the worlds greatest eyewitnesses and an inspiration for all of humanity, emboldening each of us to rise to the challenge of standing up against evil and for human rights. This definitive editionwhich includes a foreword by Madeleine Albright, a biographical essay by Yale historian Timothy Snyder, an afterword by Zbigniew Brzezinski, previously unpublished photos, notes, further reading, and a glossaryis an apt legacy for this hero of conscience during the most fraught and fragile moment in modern history.</p>...4060361Story of a Secret State389409https://www.gandhi.com.mx/story-of-a-secret-state-9781589019843/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2675927/54a8af4b-6634-4f8d-9895-27dba74e3fac.jpg?v=638384300344200000https://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2674030/54a8af4b-6634-4f8d-9895-27dba74e3fac.jpg?v=638384297948600000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139781589019843_W3siaWQiOiIyNWQyZjM2OS05OTBkLTRjYjQtYWQxOC05YTBkMjc3M2RlMTIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM5OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjIwLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjM3OSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9781589019843_<p>Jan Karskis <em>Story of a Secret State</em> stands as one of the most poignant and inspiring memoirs of World War II and the Holocaust.
