Budapest 1956 - what happened, where and why? Using a wide range of sources, both historical and modern, Bob Dent tells the story of the 1956 uprising by looking at the places in Budapest where something significant happened. All the major actors are included - the street demonstrators, the armed groups of civilians, the politicians and the factory workers. In a text which has all the hallmarks of a drama, the events are described, the problems, ambiguities and contradictions of 1956 are investigated, and the still-unexplained mysteries of the time are highlighted. Employing a ground-breaking style of presentation, Budapest 1956 - Locations of Drama is an account of, and a guide to, one of the most momentous social explosions of European 20th-century history. In its appreciation of differing accounts of 1956, it is also a book about history itself....differs radically from former narrative......reserved and elegant...... does not force the reader to accept his own interpretation......unique among foreign authors writing about Hungary... (From the introduction by János Rainer, Director of the Institute for the Documentation and Research of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution)
