The book of the Polish historian is devoted to the tragic events that occurred during the Second World War on the lands of Western Ukraine (Volyn, Galicia) and Poland (Kholmshchina, Lublinschina), when hundreds of thousands of civilians - Poles and Ukrainians died. The peak of ethnic purges became the so -called Volyn massacre of 1943. The characteristic of these events is the subject of disputes in Poland and Ukraine, moreover, both sides admit that the number of Poles died during ethnic purges of the Poles was significantly in? The author reasonably proves that the crowding out of the Polish population from these territories with the help of terror, represented in the form of “popular anger” was a well -thought -out strategy of Ukrainian nationalist organizations (primarily the UPA), developed long before the start of the war. The book does not bypass the facts of retaliatory purges on the Polish side, describes the destruction of the nationalist underground in Western Ukraine in the USSR in the post -war years. The author draws an analogy between the actions of the Ustasha in Yugoslavia and the UPA, covers in detail the situation of the conflict of historical memory in modern Poland and Ukraine
