The Struggle" is a very readable account of an interesting life. The author was born in a rather poor peasant family in Poland. Through his own effort he made his way into the elite, becoming an officer and a fighter pilot of the Polish Air Force. During World War Two he was among thousands of Polish airmen who came to Britain to fight the Germans, eventually rising to command a fighter squadron.
