Kosciusko's Luminous Career From Poland to France
The narrative traces Kosciusko’s valor in Poland against Russia, his exile and statue as a French citizen, and his leadership of 4000 men against superior forces. It notes his acts at Cracow and Warsaw, his siege defenses against Prussia, and his later travels to America and France, where he was honored and finally aided Polish serfs by abolishing slavery on his estate in 1817 before a fatal accident ended his life.
