    What was life like in the territories annexed by Russia in the 19th century? What were the views and attitudes of the Poles living in landsbelonging to the Russian Empire? How did people arrange their lives when they did not take up revolutionary action and foreswore an openstruggle with the Tsarist regime? Could one be a Polish patriot without fighting gun in hand for independence? The Russians believed that Poleswere genetically preordained to be anti-Russian. Even in the west of Europe this charge of morbid Russophobia was taken to be the rule. Itseems that this was one of the greatest falsehoods that Russian imperial propaganda managed to implement in the West. Leszek Zasztowtunfolds in this fascinating biography a much more complex reality through the life story of the medical scientist, academic and politicalactivist Józef Mianowski (1804-1879), a man who served Russia and loved Poland.
