Summary

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Winter War, then pay attention....

In December 1940, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill made a speech about a conflict that had some leading figures in Britain and France, including Churchill himself, briefly discussing the idea of going to war with the Soviet Union, even though they were already fighting Adolf Hitler.

Of course, war makes strange bedfellows, and one year later, Churchill would find himself allied with the Soviet Union against Germany and Finland. It’s an interesting saga, one with roots in imperial Russian history and the desire of the Finns to be free in their northern forests.

In The Winter War: A Captivating Guide to the Russo-Finnish War between Finland and the Soviet Union, you will discover topics such as

  • The Grand Duchy of Finland
  • The Finnish Civil War
  • Between a rock and a hard place
  • The Red Menace
  • Negotiations, “refresher training,” and the balance of forces
  • The Greatest Finn of all time
  • Hell in the snow
  • And much, much more!

The writer could have given more personal achievements of individual soldiers, more writings of the heroics that many soldiers performed. There were some, but not nearly enough.

I really love the mini-wars within WW2, it shows an exciting side of history you are different from unless you are from the range they are talking on.
