Description
The Time of Triumph, the Time of Revenge: 1948 - 1952: A look behind the scenes of political crimes. This monographic study is dedicated to more than ten victims of political trials in our country after 1948. A well-known journalist has processed a number of well-known and lesser-known cases of judicial murders that took place here after the victorious February 1948, based on documents. Among the personalities discussed are Gen. Píka, Gen. Kutlvašr, Gen. Janoušek, and many others. Dry facts are interspersed with passages from interviews with family members, revealing the monstrosity and horror of the described realities. "Only a wise and noble victor can, in moments when he gains power, refrain from revenge. Those who triumphed in February 1948 and in the following months were further from nobility than the stars," it is said in one of the chapters of this book. It could not have been otherwise: After the time of triumph came, it had to inevitably come, the time of revenge. And this book tells that story.
