Dan Hruby's new book Prague Stories, Through the Lost World of the Old Town, is the next part of a popular book series that describes and explores the modern history of Prague's old quarters. It brings Old Prague to authentic life.
The Old Town was home to the family of post-war Hollywood's brightest star, a beautiful figure skater, an incorrigible bigamist and a churchman who raised chickens in his attic on Železná Street and was decorated by the Queen of Denmark. The funniest Czech airman from the RAF fought his last battle here and the pop idol of the nineties was looking for an escape from himself.
