Mikl Horthy: The Hungarian Anti-Hero (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798860904293)

Mikl Horthy is perhaps one of history's most controversial figures. Glorified by one side as a pragmatic leader and vilified on the other as a slippery Nazi puppet, Admiral Mikl Horthy lived a life of adventure, sorrow, and complexity in one of history's darkest chapters. From his time at sea during World War One to leading a nation surrounded by fascist barbarism in the dying days of World War Two, this is Horthy's untold story. An episode in history that is not only guaranteed to entertain, but perhaps even change your very perception of history in its entirety.

Not a history buff? Don't have the time to read thick textbooks? Then this book is perfect for you. It covers the life of Mikl Horthy at a quick and enjoyable pace that's easy to digest, introducing small bits of 20th century history as you make your way through. Plus there are pictures! Though certainly not as academic as other books on the subject, this one will give you a detailed look into everything you need to know about the Kingdom of Hungary's only Admiral Regent.
