Ukrainian UPA Genocide of Poles Siemaszko

Ludobójstwo dokonane przez nacjonalistów ukraińskich na ludności polskiej Wołynia 1939-1945, by Władysław Siemaszko, Ewa Siemaszko. 2002

A Magisterial Work That Details the OUN-UPA Genocide of the Poles of Wolyn (Volhynia, Volyn) Under the German Occupation During WWII

Title: The Genocide Conducted by Ukrainian Nationalists on the Polish population of Volhynia, 1939-1945], 2 Volumes, von Borowiecky, Warsaw. (ISBN: 8387689343).

Eyewitness Wladyslaw Siemaszko (99 years old as I write this) and his daughter Ewa Siemaszko have compiled this monumental work.

It catalogues over 1,600 known locations where the murders took place. The total number of catalogued Poles murdered is over 30,000. Owing to incomplete data, the projected total is 70,000. But that is for Wolyn alone.

This 2-volume work also contains numerous documents, photographs, etc., and has an extensive English-language summary. This work also examines and soundly debunks Ukrainian attempts to minimize this crime, blame it on the Poles, or create a false symmetry with a few Polish retaliatory actions to make out of it a mythical “Polish-Ukrainian war.”
