Memories of the war years and after, in Hungary
Jaap Scholten travelled extensively in Romania and Hungary and sought out the few remaining aristocrats who experienced the night of 3 March 1949. He spoke to people who survived the Romanian Gulag and met the youngest generation of the once distinguished aristocracy to talk about the restitution of assets and about the future.
A brave man roamed the streets of Budapest those days. He took photographs between October 23rd and November 11th of 1956. So that a sign would remain. And when freedom came again and it left even the murderers unpunished, his widow gave the concealed photographs to the Historial Institute on one condition: neither her nor her husband’s name should be made public.
A comprehensive first-hand historical compilation of the Hungarian Revolution and its aftermath, including the 50th anniversary with more than 160 interviews, accounts, anecdotes, documents, poems and pictures from survivors, friends and adversaries from all walks of life worldwide.
The 1956 revolution: articles, Hungarian and Canadian perspectives
