On the pre-title page dedication by the author from Warsaw 1931

A great epic about the January Uprising. Julian Wołoszynowski's novel is the story of Jan Worobijowski, son of an exile to Siberia and grandson of a November insurgent, who left an idle life in the Borderlands and set out to fight for his homeland. He knew that as long as the uprising lasted, there was hope. And she dies last. For independence Jan Worobijowski and the insurgents would have given everything.
