Gdansk, According to Lech Walesa - Adamowicz, Piotr; Drzycimski, Andrzej; Kinaszewski, Adam

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; pasted in photos throughout; The image of Gdansk from the perspective of the great politician, Lech Walesa, the first chairman of the Solidarity Trade Union, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, President of the 3rd Republic of Poland, and Honorary Citizen of the City of Gdansk. Over the next 20 odd years he would lead strikes, be interned, and go underground where he continued to organize the massively influential Solidarity Movement, leading eventually to the end of communist rule in Poland. Gdansk in this book is treated not as a tourist attraction but as a place which summoned people to answer the primal questions passed by history.
