"Vanhaa Lappia ja Peräpohjaa" by Samuli Paulaharju is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the traditional lifestyles, customs, and the gradual changes in the Lapland region and Peräpohja, drawing from the memories of elderly residents and their personal experiences. The focus is on preserving the fading traditions of the past, including folk stories, local customs, and the ways of living in this northern wilderness. At the start of the book, Paulaharju introduces his motivation for documenting the rich memories of the Lapland and Peräpohja regions, highlighting his journey through various locales from 1920 to 1923. He emphasizes the importance of collaborative storytelling with local elders who share their recollections of a world that is quickly fading away. The opening portion sets a nostalgic tone as it details the paths and routes that once played a vital role in connecting communities, illustrating how nature, geography, and human lives intertwined amidst the vast Finnish wilderness. Through vivid descriptions, we see how the waterways served as crucial transport routes essential for trade and communication in a bygone era. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
