GERMAN WAR – RUSSIAN PEACE The Hungarian Tragedy by Antal Ullein-Reviczky
English language edition the wartime memoirs of Antal Ullein-Reviczky,
first published in 1947 as Guerre Allemande - Paix Russe Le Drame Hongrois.

     Ancient states are tempered through trial and adversity, and among these glorious nations Hungary remains a steadfast, glittering gem. A thousand years of introspection has yielded many heroes, and among them rests one of Hungary’s most forward thinking and sensitive citizens – Dr. Antal Ullein-Reviczky. His uniquely Hungarian story not only paints a poignant picture of his beloved homeland embroiled in 20th century conflict, it eloquently expresses the universal desire to protect and  preserve what is most precious to us – liberty and security, for all human kind.
      Ullein-Reviczky’s influential life was particularly rich and diverse, yet he also represents a broader segment of society, those significant contributors to the betterment of humanity who seem to be overlooked.  He was a key figure in Hungary during the Regency Period, and like many others, he is neither universally known, nor are his contributions fully appreciated in the non-Hungarian speaking world. His remarkable career deserves closer study – the man embodied a kind of sensitive heroism that never goes out of fashion, and is so necessary to every generation. The new edition of his memoirs, German War - Russian Peace, will bring to light this remarkable visionary’s ideals to the English speaking world. German War – Russian Peace, meticulously translated by the great man’s daughter Lovice, is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the 20th century.
