Items related to Ukraine and Poland in Documents, 1918-1922: Part II
122 documents primarily in Polish, some in Ukrainian or French. Editorial matter, including the summaries of documents, in English. --- The book is an important documentary source in twentieth-century history, a real contribution not only to Ukrainian and Polish, but also to general East Central European studies. The documents selected for this publication come from the archives of the Jozef Pilsudski Institute of America, from the files of the so-called Belweder Archive for the 1918-1922 period, evacuated from Poland to Romania in 1939. Although it sustained some losses, the Belweder Archive represents one of the most important Polish collections. The character and nature of documents included here is diverse. Diplomatic reports and telegrams figure side-by-side with proceedings of Polish-Ukrainian military and civilian conferences, protocols of meetings of Ukrainian representatives abroad, memoranda, declarations, and texts of political and military agreements. A good deal of the material is informative and illuminating about various aspects of the Ukrainian-Polish question. Some documents are of importance to students of Czechoslovak-Polish relations, and others hold special interest for military historians. Detailed lists of the actual strength of Ukrainian army units and the equipment they possessed - or, more often, lacked - is revealing for anyone studying the 1919 and 1920 campaigns. Of great interest are some materials on the less well-known phase of Ukrainian-Polish relations, in 1921-1922. --- The documents contained in the two parts of "Ukraine and Poland in Documents, 1918-1922" are arranged in strict chronological order - those for the years 1918-1919 appear in the first volume (listed separately, ISBN 0880541016), and those for 1920-1922 appear in the second. Summaries, which include the date and nature of the document and identify its number and pages, appear at the beginning of each volume.
