Authored by Maciej Sadowski, this work offers a unique perspective by narrating Pilecki's life through a rich collection of photographs and selected excerpts from his letters and reports. Witold Pilecki is renowned for his extraordinary bravery during World War II. He voluntarily infiltrated the Auschwitz concentration camp to gather intelligence and organize resistance from within. His mission, spanning nearly three years, stands as one of the most heroic acts of the war. Tragically, after the war, Pilecki was arrested by the communist authorities in Poland, accused of espionage, and executed in 1948.
