On Wednesday, October 22, 2003 David
Irving signed copies of the Hungarian
edition of his famous 1981 history of
the 1956 Hungarian Uprising in two
Budapest bookstores. In one, a visitor
handed him a trophy from the revolution
- a heavy (8 kilo) submachine gun
wrested by his father from an AVO
secret policeman and used to attack Red
Army troops during the uprising --
there are twelve notches on the wooden
stock. [Booklaunch
