Great Britain's obligations towards Poland, and some facts about the Curzon line

New York: National Committee of Americans of Polish Descent, 1945. Pamphlet. 86p. staplebound pamphlet, very good, with printed cover letter laid in.

"We condemn both governments, British and Polish alike, for having entered into a secret agreement whereby a whole nation was deceived in matters touching the issues of life and death. Secret understandings in matters of military strategy are sometimes necessary. But secret understandings made in matters which involve the very existence of nations are little less than criminal. It is utterly wrong and blameworthy to promise full brotherhood to a people going forth to fight and die and afterwards, behind closed doors, to qualify that promise. The Poles fighting at Tobruk, Narvik and Monte Cassino, the Poles who died in the Warsaw Underground holocaust, knew nothing of the implications of a secret agreement."
