I loved to work on this and I hope it tells something about more general issues than simply the life of a revered Hungarian historian whose autobiography (?) was published in Hungarian language.

I hope it will not always a site for depressed posts but I have just seen that the book that misunderstands the Habsburg military border the most is just coming out soon. Fun fact, one blurb writer political scientist seem to think that its inhabitanst were the colonized and not the colonists.
