Michener at his most gripping. His classic nonfiction account of a doomed uprising is as searing and unforgettable as any of his bestselling novels. 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 oclock in the morning on a Sunday in November, the citizens of Budapest awoke to the shattering sound of Russian tanks ravaging their streets. The revolution was over. 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.Praise for The Bridge at AndauPrecise, vivid . . . immeasurably stirring.-The Atlantic MonthlyDramatic, chilling, enraging.-San Francisco ChronicleSuperb.-Kirkus ReviewsHighly recommended reading.-Library Journal\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51974566183200,"sku":"NEW0812986741","price":18.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-bridge-at-andau-the-compelling-true-story-of-a-brave-embattled-people-0812986741","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
