The subjects of this book, the three principal cities of the old Hapsburg Empire - Vienna, Budapest and Prague - are as different from one another as the languages spoken, and since World War II these differences have if anything increased. Looking at all aspects of life in Vienna, Budapest and Prague, this book looks at the food and wine, the culture, the buildings, the politics and, above all the people of these three cities.
