Excerpt from The Deluge, Vol. 1 of 2: An Historical Novel of Poland, Sweden, and Russia, a Sequel to With Fire and Sword
Before touching on the Teutonic Knights, a few words may be given to the land where they began that career which cut off Poland from the sea, took from the Poles their political birthplace, and gave its name and territory to the chief kingdom of the new German Empire, the kingdom which is in fact the creator and head of that Empire.
