  • An Undiplomatic Diary
    AN UNDIPLOMATIC DIARY BY THE AMERICAN MEMBER OF THE INTER-ALLIED MILITARY MISSION TO HUNGARY · 1919-1920 MAJ. GEN. HARRY HILL BANDHOLTZ, U. S. A. EDITED BY FRITZ-KONRAD KRUGER PROFESSOR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE WITTENBERG COLLEGE NEW YORK MCMXXXIII COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Copyright 1933 COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Published 1933 2 Editor’s Preface This Diary of the late Maj. Gen. Harry Hill Bandholtz was not written for publication. However, when I happened to see it, I recognized its importance as a historical document of the World War period and was happy to secure from the widow of General Bandholtz, Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, permission to make the contents of the Diary available to students of history and diplomacy. I believe that the Diary is a monument to an upright, fair-minded and humane American, who has represented the best type of his countrymen in an unfortunate land. The attitude and activity of General Bandholtz in Hungary may, mutatis mutandis, be compared to that of Gen. H. T. Allen in Germany. I wish to express my appreciation to Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, whose support in editing this Diary was valuable to me. Special credit is due to Miss Georgia W. Read, of the Columbia University Press, for many helpful suggestions and for her fine coöperation in the editing of this book. FRITZ-KONRAD KRÜGER WITTENBERG COLLEGE, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO November, 1932 3 Contents Introduction by Fritz-Konrad Krüger A List of the Principal Persons Mentioned in the Diary The Diary of General Bandholtz Appendices I.

    Supplemental Index Since formal entries in this encyclopedia are arranged alphabetically, they are rarely listed in the Supplemental Index.
