It is based on the heretofore unpublished notes of J. F. Montgomery (1878-1954), U.S. ambassador ("Minister") to Hungary before World War II.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. 606 $aDiplomats$zUnited States$vBiography$vSources 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1933-1945$vSources 607 $aHungary$xForeign relations$y1918-1945$vSources 607 $aEurope$xForeign relations$y1918-1945$vSources 610 $aBiography, Diplomatic history, Europe, Foreign relations, Hungary, United States, World War II. 615 0$aDiplomats 676 $a327.73043/09/043 701 $aFrank$b Tibor$0801919 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793590103321 996 $aDiscussing Hitler$93745043 997 $aUNINA
