Hungary 1930 and the Forgotten History of a Mass Protest (Paperback)

"Dent's book gives a key not only to the labor history of interwar Hungary, but also to the understanding of an aspect of the Hungarian political thinking in the second half of the twentieth century. It fills a gap in both areas; it offers a witty insight for its foreign readers, but it would be really useful reading for the Hungarian public as well." --Peter Konok, tandfonline.com "Bob Dent's short book is a good introduction to a forgotten period of working class history. It is also a good primer for the history of a country that few people in Britain will know." ResoluteReader "Turn back 82 years, to 1 September 1930... it only gets short thrift in nowadays' history books and memorials. This is precisely where Bob Dent's well researched and highly readable book opens...Dent rightly closes with a call for its importance to be reassessed, not in its version celebrated by the Communist Party but as an episode of Hungarian labour history in its own right."
