The Hungarians: A Thousand Years of Victory in Defeat

Предна корица
C. Hurst, 2003 - 572 страници
This is a comprehensive history of a legendarily proud and passionate but lonely people. Much of Europe once knew them as child-devouring cannibals and bloodthirsty Huns but it was not long before the Hungarians became steadfast defenders of Christendom and fought heroic freedom struggles against the Tartars, the Turks and, among others, the Russians.
