Two volume set, in modern translation by W. S. Kuniczak. Following on the success of With Fire and Sword, this second book of the classic Sienkiewicz Trilogy thunders across the vast historical canvas of Eastern Europe in the 17th Century, and its grest human message of war, struggle, love, betrayal and redemption rings just as powerful today as it did when it was first published in 1886. Set against the bloody background of the Swedish invasion of 1655-1657.
