This episode covers the 1956 Hungarian revolution in which Hungary, under Imre Nagy, demanded independence from the USSR's sphere of influence.

Recommended books:

Postwar: A History of Europe Since 1945 by Tony Judt. Best book on the period available. Absolutely phenomenal and a complete tome (worth every penny, though).

A Concise History of Hungary by Miklós Molnár. Like all of the other books in this series its a fantastic introduction to all Hungarian history. Not the cheapest but still a great book for people interested in both Communist and all other Hungarian history.
