Foreword History is the way it is written. I have now written tales from the Finns' Odyssey through the past ten millenia of history. It has been a fascinating task, but also a horrifying one.
I wanted to write about the history of my people gently, without emphasizing wars and years of death, but it proved impossible.
I express my thanks to Professor Heikki Ylikangas, who read my manuscript and suggested numerous valid explications, many of which I have taken into account.
