It is based on the heretofore unpublished notes of J. F. Montgomery (1878-1954), U.S. ambassador ("Minister") to Hungary before World War II. In Budapest, Montgomery quickly made friends with nearly everyone who mattered in the critical years of Hitler's takeover and preparation for World War II. His circle included Admiral Horthy, the Regent of Hungary, subsequent prime ministers, foreign ministers, members of both houses of parliament, as well as fellow diplomats from all over Europe. In addition, as an avid player of golf and bridge, he had an active social life that was interconnected with a large circle of influential friends in the United States.DiplomatsUnited StatesBiographySourcesUnited StatesForeign relations1933-1945SourcesHungaryForeign relations1918-1945SourcesEuropeForeign relations1918-1945SourcesDiplomats327.73043/09/043Frank Tibor801919MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910973405603321Discussing Hitler4365228UNINA
