[Piotr · Rating 3 out of 5]

I visited Hungary this year and wanted to read a short and popular book on the history of the country. It was all right to understand the complex story of Hungarians. Sometimes it was difficult to follow as there are a lot of names and various terms which are not often well explained.
I used a copy from the Internet Archive so the pictures were barely legible, but it was possible to read the text on Kindle Paperwhite.
