The Once and Future Budapest by Robert Nemes

This book traces the complex process by which Budapest became a Hungarian city. Few cities grew as rapidly, and in none was nationalism woven so tightly into the urban fabric. Nemes views modern nationalism as expressed in daily events and maps its inroads into every corner of urban life.

Nemes' imaginative and carefully researched book provides invaluable insight into the complex worlds of nineteenth-century nationalism and urbanism in Central Europe
