Author

Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846–1916), Nobel laureate, wrote Polish historical epic at popular heat — Quo Vadis, With Fire and Sword, In Desert and Wilderness. He gave a partitioned nation stories of honour, faith, and adventure that travelled the world. Sienkiewicz's narrative is spacious and unashamedly heroic: history as a book you can ride through.
