About the Book

Peoples' Spring looks at the unrest that swept like wildfire across Europe in 1848 through the eyes of Sergei, a Russian youth of noble birth forced to flee from his home because of prohibited dueling. In exile, he ends up in Prague where, because of lack of funds, he is forced to join the garrison army. He strives to learn Czech and meets his teacher Marika. From then on their fortunes are intertwined. In 1848 political unrest sweeps through the capitals of Europe and it comes to fighting in the streets of Prague. The uprising, however, is short lived and Sergei and Marika have to flee to Hungary where the revolution has a better chance. They join the Hungarian army and for a year and a half, they fight against the Austrian overlords. The life in the field is harsh, the battles are devastating and Sergei gets wounded many times. When Russia comes to the aid of the beleaguered Austrians, the revolution collapses and the Hungarian army surrenders. Again on the run, Sergei works his way home to introduce Marika to his family.
About the Author: Paul Telegdi was born in Hungary during the last year of WWII and was much affected by the shadow of the war that was still fresh in peoples' memories. After the 1956 uprising against the communist regime the whole family fled to Austria where they spent several months in refugee camps. They were accepted by Canada and first ended up in Vancouver, then five years later moved to Toronto. Paul attended University of Waterloo where he met his future wife Melanie. They married in 1968, and after a few years in the Waterloo region they moved to West Germany where Melanie studied music at a renowned music academy. Two sons were born there and after eight years the family returned to Canada and settled in Bradford, Ontario. Melanie opened an office of psychology in town and both were busy at it. Third son was born. Around this time Paul started writing, eventually producing a prehistoric series of five books. After that he added a book a year and now has 24 self-published ebooks with a few also available in print. Paul writes mainly historical adventures and loves to linger in the Middle Ages. All books are character driven action books with a healthy dose of romance threaded through the plot. All books are designed to draw the reader into the story and to be fellow travellers with the main characters. In all books the main theme is to confront evil and wrongdoing and culminating in a redemptive ending.
