One of the most important publications of the co-founder of the national movement in Poland.
From the preface: , "The first edition of this book enjoyed relatively considerable success but for a short time. In less than four weeks after its publication it was confiscated. The confiscation removed the book from the bookstore market for more than eight months. Half a year passed from the confiscation until the indictment was served on me, and another two months - until the court revoked the confiscation of the book's paragraphs not covered by the indictment. The parts of the book not covered by the confiscation form a closed whole, this is why we are now releasing it to the world as the first volume. When, after the trial and after the verdict( which I do not doubt), acquitting, the rest of the book will also be released from under confiscation-it will appear on bookstore shelves as the second volume''. Infrequent.
