Making extensive use of the diplomatic sources and also of hitherto untapped archives within Poland, he has traced, with admirable dispassion, the exceedingly intricate interplay of international rivalry and suspicion and of domestic Polish controversy and confusion that led, in ways unforeseen and unanticipated by even the partitioners, to the drastic diminution of a once great state." - Foreword by Henry L Roberts. ; Ex-Library; xvii, 215 pages .
