Sehemu ya ndani imechapishwa kwa rangi mbili, nyeusi na nyekundu iliyokolea, huku vionjo vya rangi nyekundu vikiashiria rangi za bendera ya Poland. Ushonaji wa aina ya Otabind unaruhusu kila juzuu kufunguka bapa kwa urahisi wa kusoma.

The printing color of the inside of the books is two-tone - black and intense red. Red accents refer to Polishness.

The series covers the period from the end of the 17th century to the first half of the 20th century. The issues discussed in the following volumes make it possible to see the continuity of the anti-Polish narrative and show how the distribution of anti-Polish accents changed depending on the current goals of the partitioning powers.
