Summary/Abstract: SABOL, Miroslav. Dejiny dopravy na Slovensku 1938–1948 (1950): Jej hranice a limity. Bratislava: Veda 2015, 299 pp., ISBN 978-80-224-1459-3. The publication "History of Transportation in Slovakia 1938–1948 (1950): Its Boundaries and Limits" characterizes in a fairly detailed manner the development of the Slovak economy since the mid-1800s, although its core deals with the independent Slovak Republic (1939–1945) and the first three years after the war. In the reviewer’s opinion, it is a very solid and comprehensive work the greatest contribution of which consists in the use of a large amount of hitherto unprocessed sources and a capture of remarkable differences in the development of transportation infrastructure, technologies, and modes of travel between Slovakia and the Czech Lands in various periods of time.
