MAGYARORSZÁG 1944. FEJEZETEK AZ ELLENÁLLÁS TORTÉNETÉBÖL
by Editor Dr. Zimanyi Tibor

Hungarian text. Final volume of a two part series on Hungarian resistance activities in World War II. A sorozat két könyve („Német megszállás” illetve „Üldöztetés – embermentés”) után a záró kötet az ellenállás témáját dolgozza fel. Három része a külföldiek Magyarországon és a magyarok külföldön folytatott tevékenységével, illetve a hazai magyar ellenállással foglalkozik. Ezen utóbbi egység teret ad nemcsak a korábban már alaposan feldolgozott kommunista, de a polgári és a katonai ellenállás históriájának is.
