English Summary:

English language edition of Hungarian novel originally published in 1872. Original title: Fekete Gyémántok.

In the novel, two bussiness men are facing each other: Iván Berend, head of the small mining company in Bondavölgy, and Félix Kaulmann's limited liability company. Kaulmann makes every effort, especially with the help of Abbot Samuel, to acquire Berend's plant and the surrounding large estate, the property of the Earl Bondaváry.

 

Móric Jókay de Ásva ([ˈmoːr ˈjoːkɒi], known as Mór Jókai; 18 February 1825 – 5 May 1904), outside Hungary also known as Maurus Jokai or Mauritius Jókai, was a Hungarian novelist, dramatist and revolutionary. He was active participant and a leading personality in the outbreak of Hungarian Liberal Revolution of 1848 in Pest. Jókai's romantic novels became very popular among the elite of Victorian era England; he was often compared to Dickens in the 19th century British press. One of his most famous fans and admirers was Queen Victoria herself.
