Only now, fifty years after those harrowing events, can the full story be told. This book is a powerful eyewitness account and a gripping history of the uprising in Hungary that heralded the future liberation of Eastern Europe. Paul Lendvai was a young journalist covering politics in Hungary when the uprising broke out. He knew the government officials and revolutionaries involved. He was on the front lines of the student protests and the bloody street fights and he saw the revolutionary government smashed by the Red Army. In this riveting, deeply personal, and often irreverent book, Lendvai weaves his own experiences with in-depth reportage to unravel the complex chain of events leading up to and including the uprising, its brutal suppression, and its far-reaching political repercussions in Hungary and neighboring Eastern Bloc countries. He draws upon exclusive interviews with Russian and former KGB officials, survivors of the Soviet backlash, and relatives of those executed. He reveals new evidence from closed tribunals and documents kept secret in Soviet and Hungarian archives. Lendvai's breathtaking narrative shows how the uprising, while tragic, delivered a stunning blow to Communism that helped to ultimately bring about its demise. One Day That Shook the Communist World is the best account of these unprecedented events. 606 $aHISTORY / Europe / Austria & Hungary$2bisacsh 607 $aHungary$xHistory$yRevolution, 1956 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aHISTORY / Europe / Austria & Hungary. 676 $a943.905/2 700 $aLendvai$b Paul$f1929-$0688363 701 $aMajor$b Ann$01055689 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458725803321 996 $aOne day that shook the Communist world$92489280 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01850nam0 22003491i 450 001 UON00027251 005 20231205102044.885 010 $a81-7304-145-8 100 $a20020107d1996 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aIN 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aTradition and Archaeology$eEarly Maritime Contacts in the Indian Ocean.
