\n\nHandbook of the Polish Army 1927\n\nHandbook of the Polish Army 1927\n\nPublished halfway between the new Polish Army\u2019s surprise humbling of the vast but untrained Red Army in 1920 and its obliteration at the hands of Hitler\u2019s Wehrmacht in 1939, this handbook gives the British War Office\u2019s official view of the new kid on the European block. It is, however, much more than a portrait of the Polish army in isolation \u2013 as it also gives a rundown of the new Polish state \u2013 its natural features, roads and rail, population, ethnography, religion, education and \u2018national character\u2019. There is much on the constitution and Government of the new state; and another chapter is devoted to the industry, agriculture and natural resources of Poland. The chapters on the army itself are completely comprehensive, covering command, training, Arm., transport, Organisation, recruitment, uniforms, artillery, cavalry and mechanisation and much more.
