Beschreibung
The 12th volume of the popular historical series by Petr Hory-Hořejš is a portrait gallery of the greatest Czech personalities from the time before World War I. In it, readers will find life stories and portraits of a number of outstanding composers led by Leoš Janáček, painters (including Antonín Slavíček and Jiří Mucha), scientists and doctors (especially Josef Thomayer), as well as men from the business world (Tomáš Baťa, Laurin and Klement). The Czech pantheon of personalities is not a dictionary collection, but a literary narrative that retains full factual and informational value. The journeys are illustrated with more than 500 historical photographs and documents.
