Unbekannte Unterschrift / Widmung / Aufkleber; Abnutzung / Risse - leicht; Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. Walesa achieved fame in August 1980 when shipyard workers in Gdansk won the right to form a free trade union. In this long-awaited autobiography, he gives his unique insider perspective on Solidarity, the events leading to its formation and its fall. Concentrating on 1980-81, Walesa covers only briefly shipyard working conditions before 1980 and his internment after 1981. Mary Craig's Lech Walesa and His Poland ( LJ 9/15/87) places the events in context more fully. Despite all that he has endured, Walesa remains optimistic about the future. His insights make this a valuable book for most collections.--Marcia L. Sprules, Univ. of South Dakota Library. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers fa44b09a-cad6-4369-8d2d-70ff06cd45ff
