Nagy Sándor Mátyás-huszár visszaemlékezése a szabadságharc alatti tevékenységéről
The Memoirs of the Matthias Hussar Sándor Nagy

Summary/Abstract: The former Matthias Hussar, Sándor Nagy wrote his memoirs on his experiences and actions during the 1848-49 War of Independence and his life story in 1896. Instead of diary-like memoirs, the author revived episodes in which he was an active participant. The work is a valuable source of less known battles of the War of Independence. A microfilm copy of this recollections can be found in the National Archives of Hungary (No. 17669), as they had been photocopied in the 1970s by the historian György Spira. This copy also served as a basis of this publication, as we do not have the original manuscript.
