After a year's training in Hungarian, the author was accredited as
the British Defence Attach in Budapest. In this book, in
light-hearted mood, he describes some of the challenges and the
variety of the life of a military attach from intelligence
gathering to arms sales, from writing the Hungarian application to
join NATO to receptions and dinners great and small, from
interpreting to intrigue. He lifts the curtain to look at life with
the Diplomatic Service and explores the way different nations tried
to cover the same tasks. This series of humorous anecdotes is set
against the background of a Hungarian nation stepping out of
communism and into a modern, western, market economy; something
they were keen to do, but are not quite sure how to go about it.
