I own these books and need to read them soon!
Based on the diary of a Polish countess who lived through the rise and fall of the Third of May Constitution years, 1791-94, Push Not the River paints a vivid picture of a tumultuous and unforgettable metamorphosis of a nation—and of Anna, a proud and resilient woman.
EadieB Against a Crimson Sky continues Anna‘s saga as Napoléon comes calling, implying independence would follow if only Polish lancers would accompany him on his fateful 1812 march into Russia. Anna‘s family fights valiantly to hold onto a tenuous happiness, their country, and their very lives. 5y
EadieB Set against the November Rising (1830-31), The Warsaw Conspiracy depicts partitioned Poland‘s daring challenge to the Russian Empire. Brilliantly illustrating the psyche of a people determined to reclaim independence in the face of monumental odds, the story features Anna‘s sons and their fates in love and war. 5y

EadieB @Crazeedi I‘ll probably read them in 2020 because I have books to complete for my 2019 challenge on reading mystery books published for 100 years. 5y
