Just a note about the Swedish translations in this book, they are quite badly made. Fortunately the Finnish and English translations where fine.Jagala wrote:Since Bair doesn't seem to be terribly keen on advertising himself, let's mention (and recommend) his "Talvisodan kadonneet kuvat".
FWIW the review in HS (19.12. C3) was favourable - and I see no reason to disagree with it - but unfortunately it isn't available online unless you're a subsciber to the digitized version of the newspaper.
PS since the title suggests and the blurb boasts that the over 200 photographs are previously unpublished and/or have been unavailable, it is perhaps a bit "ironic" that the photograph (of three Soviet soldiers with Asiatic facial features posing next to a stuffed bear on top of an improvised road block/tank barrier on Kannaksenkatu in Viipuri) chosen by the reviewer was already featured in "Viipuri toisessa maailmansodassa" (1991) by Niilo Lappalainen. (OTOH the reviewer appears to place the location on the wrong side of the front line on March 13th, 1940...)
Looking at the authors, this book represents the most modern Finnish history reseachers - a feminist included!Jagala wrote:A forthcoming book, titled "Finland in World War II": http://www.brill.nl/finland-world-war-ii

I've noticed a couple of others at my local, they being:
"The Soviet Invasion of Finland, 1939-40" and
"Finland's War Of Choice: The Troubled German-Finnish Alliance in World War II"
Can anyone offer an opinion of the these books? Cheers.
