'Magyar Warriors' (vol. 1)

After over 20 years of working on the manuscript, boosting the content to almost double the original size, after several publisher changes and waiting, and more waiting, I am thrilled to learn from the Publisher the book has finally been published! The final page count of vol. 1 increased to over 400. I haven't seen the book myself yet, so I cannot comment on the looks. Will do it as soon as the courtesy copies arrive this week.
I also opened a Facebook page dedicated to the book: https://www.facebook.com/MagyarWarriors
I am looking forward to reading your comments.

Re: 'Magyar Warriors' (vol. 1)

I must admit that I know little about Hungarian history. Congratulations on publication after decades of work.




Best,
Ed West

Re: 'Magyar Warriors' (vol. 1)

Thank you, Ed! Perhaps it's time to start learning something about the Hungarian military history...

Re: 'Magyar Warriors' (vol. 1)

You're welcome. I am Polish, first generation. I recall reading a little about the Hungarian military in Skorzeny's book about his service. Is there a good book about the Hungarian Air Force?



Best,
Ed

Re: 'Magyar Warriors' (vol. 1)

If you're interested in the whole 100-year span of the Hungarian air force, you may need this large size, high quality printed bilingual book I co-authored:
http://www.amazon.com/Wings-Nation-D...800776&sr=1-16

If you're interested only in the pre-war and WW 2-era , you may want to wait for vol. 2 of 'Magyar Warriors'.
Of course, there are other options, too, like:

Cześć,

Hi, Denes, what is the focus of your book? combat history in WWII? Unit history? or Weapon and uniform?

Practically, everything that is related to the Hungarian armed forces of the Horthy era (1919-1945).
See enclosed the summary and contents of the book.

Re: 'Madarska Armada 1919-1945?

BHW,
is there any big difference/s (improvment/s, + correction) done between this edition (now in English) and the edition done several years in Czech Republic (title: Madarska Armada, Praha 2007)?
