Hungarian lawyer, journalist, politician. Governor-President during the 1848 - 9 revolution. Louis is a westernised version of his first name, Lajos. Spent 3 weeks in England in 1851 on a speaking tour, about Hungarian nationalism and independence. One venue was Copenhagen Fields. Researching Kossuth we came across the very useful Hungarians in London site.
