About the Book
On Valentine’s Day 1945, two soldiers met in a small café in Lublin, Poland. Bisia was a lieutenant in the Polish Home Army, fighting for her nation’s doomed freedom. Isham was a lieutenant in the U.S. Army, an escaped POW, searching for an American mission. Neither spoke the other’s language. Yet 11 days later they married, beginning a life of 64 years together. BISIA & ISHAM is a son’s retelling of his parents’ momentous meeting, a story that illuminates the indomitable Polish character and boundless American spirit. ★★★★★
