Carved history. The history of Hungary through the history of statues. 2021.
The statues, bas-reliefs, memorial plaques, works of art that thousands of people walk by every day, often taking their existence for granted. But every statue has a story, with the help of which the author tells about Hungarian history in an enjoyable style, with passionate patriotism. The book, which covers nearly 450 pages, presents not only the history of the Hungarians living in the Carpathian Basin through interesting stories, but also highlights the adventurous fate of the sculptures, mostly dependent on politics. The undisclosed purpose of the book is to encourage the reader to go on a "sculpture tour".
The three Trianons. The stormy century of the Hungarian people (1920-2020). 2019
The 190-page volume focuses on how the tragedy that befell Hungary during the First World War and then the Second World War is related to the issues of today's destiny. The volume explores the main nodes of Hungarian history leading up to June 4, 1920, the person and role of the framers of the Paris peace decree, as well as the main events and actors related to the topic in the hundred years that have passed since then.
