Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The book "Finlands idrott av idag" (original title: Suomi urheilee: Finlands idrott av i dag: Sports in Finland: La Finlande sportive: Finnlands Sport im Bild), published in 1947, is a richly photo-illustrated overview of Finnish sports and athletic…life at the time of publication. It was published by Werner Söderström Osakeyhtiö (WSOY) and authored by Martti Jukola and Lauri Nurmi. Content and Information The primary content of the book is a presentation of Finnish sports in pictures, as indicated by its multilingual title. Format and Scope: The book is heavily illustrated with photographs and is typically unpaginated (approximately 120 pages). It weighs about 520 grams. Languages: It is a five-language publication, featuring text in Finnish, Swedish, English, French, and German, making it an international showcase of Finnish athletics. Subject Matter: The content focuses on various sports and athletes in Finland during the immediate post-war era. It captures the spirit of Finnish sports culture in the late 1940s, a period when icons like long-distance runner Paavo Nurmi were legendary figures. Historical Context: The book provides a snapshot of an era when winter sports (such as ice hockey and cross-country skiing), track and field, and the national sport of pesäpallo were prominent in Finland. Purpose: Similar to the first yearbook published by the Finlands Svenska Centralidrottsförbund (CIF) in 1947, this book served to document current sports activities and achievements for both domestic and international audiences. The book is a valuable historical source for anyone interested in Finnish sports history and the visual documentation of athletics in the 1940s.
