Na polu chwały

A historical novel of the seventeenth-century Polish gentry, which opens on a frozen night as a laden sleigh with an armed escort crosses a wolf-haunted forest road. Sienkiewicz, in a book of 1906, leads his people from the manors of the borderland to the wars of the Commonwealth. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur. This book contains scenes of violence as its author wrote them.
