This book analyzes the multi-faceted phenomenon of Finnish military
effectiveness in the Winter War (1939-40). Drawing on a wide array
of primary and secondary sources, Pasi Tuunainen shows how by
focusing on their own strengths and pitting these against the
weaknesses of their adversary, the Finns were able to inflict heavy
casualties on the Red Army whilst minimizing their own losses. The
Finns were able to use their resources for effective operational
purposes, and perform almost to their full potential. The Finnish
small-unit tactics utilized the terrain and Arctic conditions for
which they had prepared themselves, as well as forming cohesive
units of well-motivated and qualitatively better professional
leaders and citizen soldiers who could innovate and adapt. The
Finnish Army had highly effective logistics, support and supply
systems that kept the troops fighting.
