Bridge at Andau
The Bridge at Andau is James A. His classic nonfiction account of a doomed uprising is as searing and unforgettable as any of his bestselling novels. Michener at his most gripping.
The revolution was over. For five brief, glorious days in the autumn of 1956, the Hungarian revolution gave its people a glimpse at a different kind of future--until, at four o'clock in the morning on a Sunday in November, the citizens of Budapest awoke to the shattering sound of Russian tanks ravaging their streets. But freedom beckoned in the form of a small footbridge at Andau, on the Austrian border.
By an accident of history it became, for a few harrowing weeks, one of the most important crossings in the world, as the soul of a nation fled across its unsteady planks. BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from James A. Michener's Poland.
