Readers’ Reviews 

Kazik’s Polish Navy is a rare and precious account of Poland’s World War II Navy in action, told by one of the men who lived it. Kazik’s memoir provides an important window into this forgotten chapter of history, while the recollections of Kazik and Irene take one on an engaging trip through the ups and downs of surviving war and the bittersweet post-war period.

Henry Sokołowski, Polish Combatants Association Canada

A fine first-hand account of the Polish Navy in World War II—a branch of the Allied armed forces not well-chronicled in English.

John B. Davenport, Ph.D.

This story, Kazik’s Polish Navy, had to be published. Not only did the exploits of the Polish Navy need to be told, but moreover because of the heroism and enduring optimism of Kazik Kasperek. In spite of war, imprisonment, and injustice, he never loses his personal grace.

Joyce Henderson, Author

Kazik’s Polish Navy is an important addition to World War II history. A patriotic, heroic Love Story—love of country, of family, and of survival against all odds. Truly inspiring!

Dennis Hamilton

I was inspired by Kazik’s attitude and valor. I didn’t want to stop reading. It was a great honor to read about such an inspiring man.

Reading Kazik’s Polish Navy made WWII history come alive.

Mirinda Hartselle

A fascinating read from beginning to end, Kazik’s Polish Navy is the personal memoir of Kazimierz Kasperek and a vivid account of the Polish navy during World War II. Written with the assistance of Pat McDonough, Kazik’s Polish Navy is a candid account of Kasperek’s service in the Polish Navy from February 1936 to May 8, 1945. This is also the story of Kasperek’s desperate escape from a German POW camp during a brutal winter, his eye-witness account of major sea battles and Allied special operations, as well as his post-war experiences. Kazik’s Polish Navy is a valued and unique addition to the growing library of World War II military studies.

Jim Cox, Midwest Book Review, The Military Shelf  

The Kasperek book, Kazik’s Polish Navy, is a dandy. I’m enjoying it, especially as I was there for a while, not in the Polish Navy, but in the Air Force. Even as war-enlistees, we were all fiercely proud to be part of the Polish services.
