This highly readable book was translated from Hungarian to German in 1990, just missing the 1989 revolution. The Hungarian 1956 revolution is never mentioned. One can however read between the lines: The 1849 Russian appeal for clemency for the defeated Hungarians fell on deaf Austrian ears. In 1956, it was the Russians themselves who inflicted vengeful victor's justice on the poor Hungarians. One of the major differences why the 1989 revolution worked was the beautiful cooperation between the East European neighbors: The Czech police permitting the GDR-Germans to enter the FDR German embassy grounds. The Hungarians opened their Western borders to the Trabi caravans and the Poles provided moral support.
