Pál Teleki (1879-1941): The Life of a Controversial Hungarian Politician
by Balázs Ablonczy
Video of Event:
This volume is the second English language edition of the highly praised biography of Pál Teleki by Balázs Ablonczy, originally released in 2006. It is also the second release in a HHP Series titled “20th Century Hungarian Statesmen”.
Revised and updated by the author, this work remains the seminal historical work on the controversial career of the 20th Century Hungarian politician.
“All of his detail is clearly presented, thoroughly documented and mercifully devoid of the ideological biases that have marred previous assessments of Teleki.”
—Thomas Lorman, The Slavonic and East European Review
