From the publisher

Lszl Tbori's dream to compete in the Melbourne Olympics became a reality but his hope of standing on the victory stand had been dashed by the events of the Hungarian Revolution. "My Hungarian teammates and I had set 23 world records in track and field." Tbori's was always running. The lessons he learned early on... imparted upon him the 'will to survive.' "It was our ticket to a better life."

About the Author: Andrs K?, writer, journalist and editor has written more than 16 books in his career. As a native of Hungary, K? grew up in Budapest after WWII at a time when the Soviets occupied the country and Communism ruled.
