Description: "Daniel Miller has written a highly original and sophisticated analysis of the creation of democracy in Czechoslovakia in the first fifteen years after World War I. His research focuses on the Agrarian Party and on its charismatic leader, Antonin Svehla. In the realm of agrarian politics, Svehla preserved the unity of a mass movement that claimed peasants and small farmers on the one hand, and agricultural industrialists on the other."--BOOK JACKET.
