The article discusses the current state of research on the history of the Polish January Uprising, which seems to be quite satiffying in the political aspects. However, the military aspect of the 1863 insurrection ought to be regarded as unsatisfactory. A few selected aspects discussed in the article refers to the plans of the uprising, the role of material preparation for the insurrection, the date of its outbreak and related complications, the analysis of the theatre of war from the guerilla war perspective, and making use of scythe as the guerilla group's weapon. The study ends with brief discussion of the four stages of the 1863 insurrection and general conclusions confirming the fact that the only effective method of fighting during the uprising was guerilla war.
