Comrade Baron The Lost World of the Transylvanian Aristocracy (1949-2009)

In the darkness of the early morning of 3rd March 1949, practically all of the Transylvanian aristocracy were arrested in their beds and loaded into lorries. That same day the Romanian Workers' Party was pleased to announce the successful deportation and dispossession of all large landowners. Communism demanded the destruction of these ultimate class enemies. Jaap Scholten presents a history of the lost world of the Transylvanian aristocracy.
