"Journey to a Revolution" is at once a history and a compelling
memoir, the story of four twenty-four year old Oxford
undergraduates who took off for Budapest in a beat-up old
Volkswagon convertible in October 1956, to bring badly needed
medicine to the Budapest hospitals and to participate, at street
level, in one of the great, heroic battes of post-war history.
Korda paints a vivid and richly detailed picture of the events and
the people, explores such major questions as the extent to which
the British and the American intelligence services were involved in
the uprising and made the Hungarians feel they could expect
military support from the West, and describes, day by day, the
course of the revolution, from its heroic beginnings, to the sad
martyrdom of its end.
