Poland under Soviet rule exposed by Mikolajczyk
Stanislaw Mikolajczyk chronicles the 1947 Polish election theft, the shadow government, and rapid communist consolidation. He details state control over industry, housing, schooling, and the security police, plus the church’s suppression and the purge of independent parties. He reflects on a shattered nation and a fight for freedom.
