About this book

Set in Szeklerland in Transylvania, this novel by the Hungarian writer Mór Jókai places its plot against the feud between Szeklers and Magyars on one side and Wallachians on the other, in the stirring days of 1848. Its twenty-eight chapters take the characters from a meeting with a fellow traveller to Holy Week in Rome and an audience with the Pope, then to Wallachian hospitality, Balyika Cave, Toroczko and Solferino. Percy Favor Bicknell retold it from the Hungarian, and it was printed in Boston in 1901.
