Description:
Compiled by Zbigniew Sudolski.
A synthetic source of data on nearly 10,000 people who, after the collapse of national uprisings, successive independence uprisings and conspiracies in the 19th century, left their native land and began wandering in Western Europe, going mainly to France and England, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy or Spain, as well as America or Australia.
According to the author's intention, the compendium is intended to fulfill the role of a basic source of information when reading source materials, researching, interpreting and editing works on the history of the Great Emigration.
