Story of a Secret State: My Report to the World

The incredible eyewitness account of wartime resistance, now in paperback

‘Insistently asks the question- What would you do? Would you fight, or acquiesce, or collaborate? … Karski was deeply patriotic and ludicrously brave … an astonishing testament of survival’ Ben Macintyre, author of Operation Mincemeat

It is 1939. Jan Karski, a brilliant young Polish student, enjoys a life of parties and pleasure. Then war breaks out and his familiar world is destroyed. Now he must live under a new identity, in the resistance. And, in a secret mission that could change the course of the war, he must risk his own life to try and save those of millions.
