This book portrays the changing fortunes of the Polish Orthodox Church as it responds to the different Polish governments. Simultaneously, it illuminates the complex relationship among the state, the Orthodox and rival Roman Catholic faiths, and the Slavic minorities (chiefly Ukrainian and Belarusan) who are the primary adherents of Orthodoxy.
