Volhynia and the Kholm Region, 1938-1947: Polish-Ukrainian Conflict and Its Repercussions. Studies, Documents, Memoirs. Edited by Jaroslav Isaievych. Lviv: I. Krypiakevych Institute of Ukrainian Studies, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 2003 (Ukraine: Cultural Heritage, National Identity, and Statehood, vol. 10). - 813 p.
The volume is dedicated to the Polish-Ukrainian Conflict on the eve of World War H, during the Nazi Occupation and its immediate aftermath.
The focus is on events in the Kholm Region (mainly from the campaign of demolishing Orthodox churches in 1938 to the mass deportations of Ukrainian native inhabitants of the region in 1945-1947) and in Volhynia (mostly in 1943-1944, when the conflict was most acute).
There is also some material on Galicia (including the Sian and Lemko Regions), but a more detailed account of events in these territories will be given in a separate volume.
The book includes studies and a selection of documents, memoirs, and materials of a public polemic preceding the opening of a memorial to Polish and Ukrainian victims of the conflict between these nations on 11 July, 2003.
The publishers acknowledge the generous support of the Theodore and Magdalena Butrey Fund at the Peter Jacyk Educational Foundation, Toronto, Canada.
