Estonia and the Estonians My wife was born in Tallinn, Estonia. Having fled her homeland in 1941 with her parents, following the Russian invasion, Prof. Toivo Raun's book: "Estonia and the Estonians", is of invaluable importance to her.
The book's comprehensive coverage of Estonia's history is a gratifying background into which she can now place the experiences of herself, her parents and her grandparents. The chapters which deal specifically with the "turbulent" years from 1917 onwards, provide her with immense satisfaction and revelation.
Our heartfelt thanks to you, Prof. Raun.
