Summary

This book examines the dual policy Hungary pursued in the 1930's, through which it aimed to revise the Peace Treaty of Trianon by enlisting the help of the fascist powers. Despite its preference for Italian support, Hungary was forced into the German orbit by the late thirties, by which time Italy had become a junior partner of the Third Reich.
