A synopsis:
The book refers to t
he Blue Army, or Haller's Army, a Polish military contingent created in France during the latter stages of World War I. The name came from the French-issued horizon blue military uniforms worn by the soldiers. The symbolic term used to describe the troops was subsequently adopted by General Józef Haller von Hallenburg himself to represent all newly organized Polish Legions fighting in western Europe. The army was formed on 4 June 1917 and composed of Polish volunteers serving alongside the allied forces in France. After fighting on the Western Front during World War I, the army was transferred to Poland where it joined other Polish military formations fighting for the return of Poland's independence. The Blue Army played a pivotal role in ensuring Polish victory in the Polish–Ukrainian War. Haller's troops subsequently took part in Poland's defeat of the advancing Bolshevik forces during the Polish–Soviet War
