Book Description
An authoritative reference work that lists more than 200 selected museums in countries from Afghanistan to Zaire. . . . This set responds to the need for a work that offers serious researchers scholarly articles on the history and collections of the world's major museums. Choice This volume will be of great use to scholars for the valuable and frequently difficult to obtain information it provides, including facts about museum libraries and the availability of slides and photographs. Not only will it be a wonderful reference tool for researchers, but it also makes fascinating reading for the armchair traveler. Highly recommended. Library Journal

Book Description
Situated on both banks of the Danube, Budapest unites the hills of Buda and the flat area of Pest. Although it was the site of a Roman outpost in the first century, the city was not created until 1873, when the towns of Obuda, Pest and Buda were joined. The united city grew quickly as one of the two capitals of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Budapest only became the capital of Hungary when the country was proclaimed a republic in 1946. The city was the centre of a popular uprising against the Hungarian Communist regime in 1956. Today, about 2 million people, representing 20% of Hungary's population, live in this cultural, political, intellectual and commercial centre.
