Finnish books?

Post by Fredde »


A question to all you Fins out there, seems to be quite a few .. Image

Do you have any recommendations for books about the Finnish army during WWII, preferably "official" batallion historys or similar things? I've read a few but there have to be loads more.

No, I can only look at the pictures.. Image

Actually, with the original title, its usually possible to find a Swedish translation since its still an official language of Finland and then i can order them through my library. Thanks a lot for the recommendations.
