Chronology
1. The last session of the National Commission. Things are heating up. Attack by night. "Lech is also surrounded." Apparent strength and real weakness. Why Solidarity allowed itself to be taken by surprise
2. Fighting in the factories. Counting our mistakes. Passive resistance: the origin of defeat. People write letters. Five people on guard at gate number two. The fall of a symbol. The techniques of pacification. The strikes are over
3. The Pyrrhic victory of the generals. The spontaneous beginnings of conspiracy. Attempts to make contact: Gdansk, Wroclaw, Warsaw
4. We have OKO. Difficulties in making contacts. The resources at our disposal. The quarterly balance
5. Constructing the foundations: factory organizations. Conflicts in Lower Silesia and Mazowsze: "extremists" on the attack. The beginnings of regional structures: history, specifics, organization. The ICC: a centralized structure or a federation?
6. Disputes over the program. The "long march" or the "short leap." Toward a general strike. The unexpected third variant: May 1 on the streets
7. A mass movement or a cadres' organization? Strikes. Demonstrations: the authorities impose a poll tax. The "front of refusal." The independent circulation of information: press and radio. Embassies. Underground intelligence and counterintelligence: "things best left alone." Special campaigns. "People I'd like to smoke out.
8. Models and traditions: the Home Army underground, "We're not going to take to the woods," the pre-August opposition, the nineteenth- and twentieth-century illegal labor movement. The inheritance of the Left: the authorities have stolen socialism. Nationalist thinking. The role of the Church. Attitudes toward the regime. Antipathy toward ideology.

Social life. "In bathing trunks everyone looks the same." How to escape the Security Service. Family tragedies. "I'm abnormal." Loneliness. Underground love. Personality disorders. "We of the first brigade . . .
10. August 1982: success or disaster? Delegalization. "They ought to admit their mistakes voluntarily." The strike in the shipyard or a missed opportunity. A day in November
11. Why do we need a program? The implementation of the "underground society." Is there a future for "Solidarity Today"? The advice of experts. To whom are these words addressed?
12. The ICC in a new role. The chairman. Factories and factions. The knitting of the Network. Upper Silesia after awakening. The maturing of underground agencies. "Let's be professional!" The papal pilgrimage. The 1983 amnesty and disappointed hopes. Who leaves the underground and with what. General strike. A Nobel Prize for Solidarity
13. Self-examination. The balance of profit and loss. There are no victories without victims. Views of the future. When to leave and how to return. "This is our last chance.
