With your particular ancestry (Hungarian/Polish/Czech), Zelda; you might find the life and accounts of BENYOSZKY Móric ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moric_Benovsky ) quite interesting. Freedom fighter for both Hungary and Poland, world traveller, unifier and Emperor of Madagascar, et cetera.

And, his wife is a (non-direct) ancestral relation of my family.

A scan of his memoirs:

And in some more formats (unfortunately I think the text based stuff is poor quality OCR only):
