The Vesels: The Fate of a Czechoslovak Family in Twentieth-Century Central Europe (1918-1989)

By Josette Baer

This book deals with the Slovak National Uprising (SNP) that was launched on 29 August 1944 in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia. In the West, the uprising is an under-researched topic in the history of WWII. The Slovak state was an ally of Nazi Germany, but the uprising proved that the population did not share the regime's ideology.
