Edited by Janos Kovacs
Published by Athenaeum; The Trial is published by The Hungarian State Publishing House, Budapest, Hungary (1949)
Used Hardcover First Edition Quantity: 1
Seller:
Rareeclectic
(Pound ridge, NY, U.S.A.)

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. In English. Both books appear to be First Editions (NAP, 1949 on both title pages). Beginning with the Documents On The Mindszenty Case, you can see the yellow covers in the photos. They are quite clean. There is a little bending/crinkling at the spine ends, no losses or tears. The cover edges are in solid shape, one nick at the front bottom edge. The corners have only light wear, a tiny spot of rub-through at the rear bottom one. There is a crease above the front bottom corner. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The pages are very clean. They are also in good condition. There are no placeholder creases. There is some crinkling on the pages. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. The dust jacket has some wear but appears to be better than any of the other ones for sale on the Internet. The material is very thin so it's not surprising that wear occurred over the last three quarters of a century or so. There is a chip at the top edge of the spine, a small one at the bottom edge. There are two tears on the spine. There is a tiny sliver of loss at the front bottom edge. There are two small tears off the bottom edge of the rear cover, one off the top edge. The flaps are in solid condition, clean. There isn't any print on the flaps. The jacket is not priced or clipped. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are taken. The second book lacks the dust jacket but it's covers are in very nice condition. The book is also quite solidly bound. The pages are nicely tight as are the covers. The pages are also, again very clean. Again, not finding any conspicuous creasing, no placeholder creases. Again, there is some crinkling on the pages. And as was the case in the first book, there are no markings, no attachments of any kind, and no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. There are a few photographs in both books. They are very good condition. Documents On The Mindszenty Case has Documents has facsimiles of historic documents, including two fold-outs. They are also in very good condition. On The Mindszenty Case is the more expensive book. If I were selling it alone it would cost $40.00. I'm not offering The Trial of Jozsef Mindszenty as a separate book. 'József Mindszenty was a Hungarian cardinal of the Catholic Church who served as Archbishop of Esztergom and leader of the Catholic Church in Hungary from 1945 to 1973. According to the Encyclopćdia Britannica, for five decades 'he personified uncompromising opposition to fascism and communism in Hungary'. During World War II, he was imprisoned by the pro-Nazi Arrow Cross Party. After the war, he opposed communism and communist persecution in his country. As a result, he was tortured and given a life sentence in a 1949 show trial that generated worldwide condemnation, including a United Nations resolution. After eight years in prison, Mindszenty was freed in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and granted political asylum by the United States embassy in Budapest. He lived there for the next fifteen years. He was finally allowed to leave the country in 1971, and died in exile in 1975 in Vienna, Austria.'. Seller Inventory # 005281
