dc.description.abstractThe volume enumerates remarkable characters who actively worked to lessen the distance between Hungary and Britain/USA in the 19-20th centuries: the reader meets the political persistence of Ferenc Pulszky and James Bryce, the humanitarian spirit of Florence Nightingale alongside Zsuzsanna Kossuth, together with Arthur J. Patterson’s rare responsiveness to Hungarian culture, as well as the diplomatic sensitivity of Owen O’Malley, and finally, the unique philanthropic role played by the US millionaire Gladys Vanderbilt. Certainly, they operated in a world defined by geopolitical realities which the present volume also addresses, i. e. the early 20th-century British-German rivalry, as well as the unbalanced nature of interwar US-Hungarian diplomatic relations.
