History / Civilian life in Poland (Krakow) during the WW2. [30]

I am looking for any information about what civilian life in Poland, esp. Krakow, was like before and during WW2. I have doggedly searched the internet and can only find information about Warsaw and the "ghetto" in Krakow.

I just have so many questions, and I am trying to find answers. Were there any Poles who escaped and fled somewhere? What was the color of the soldiers' uniforms? What did women wear? Did the culture still celebrate the harvest festival?

Thank you so much if you can help me!

Harry:
In fact, I have. My eyes are bleeding I've been reading so much. I've looked at pictures even but the quality is so bad that I can't tell colors.

I'm just looking for some help. If you don't want to, that's okay.

Thank you so much.
What I'm trying to understand is if any Poles tried to escape, esp. the women, and if they did what routes did they take? I know that they were hearing tricklings before the 1st of September, and did anyone leave before that?

I am asking very pointed questions, and have only found broad-brushed answers on the internet, because I am writing a book. I have deep Polish roots and this means a lot to me.

Thank you again so much.

Pawian and Harry...

There are two types of people in the world. There are people who are filled with knowledge and information and want to reach out to people to share with them. People who want to help other people understand, even if they seem ignorant, because getting the knowledge across is important.

And then there are people like you.
