Beschreibung
The Year of Revolutions appeared as a beacon of hope for oppressed people elsewhere who dared to dream that they too could free themselves. In a dizzying few months of almost entirely peaceful revolutions the people's will triumphed over tyranny. An entire way of life was swept away.Now, twenty years on, Victor Sebestyen reassesses this decisive moment in modern history.
