Inheritance

This book and it's partner book (part II, Bequest) were particularly interesting to me because I grew up knowing the man who is the subject of the books. Though it is not completely non-ficticious, I was pleased to find the character of the man in the book to be consistent with the character of the man I knew. It filled in many questions I'd had of what life experiences had helped to mold such a respectable person. It also gave new insight into the history of Hungary. After reading it I knew it was a good one to pass on to my kids and even supply their school library with their own copies. The only disappointment was that the story ended so early in his life; I could have read 2 more books and then some because I know he is still alive as of this writing.
