The Finnish Mosin-Nagant is the first comprehensive, English-Language collector's book exploring all the Finnish variants of the Mosin-Nagant rifle. Finland's unique history, economy, and geographical location all led to an enduring relationship with the Mosin-Nagant that spanned from Finnish independence to the present day. However, it is impossible to fully understand the history of this rifle and its variants without examining Finland's tumultuous relationship with Russia. Further clarity is provided through the analysis of the rifle's development and adoption by Czarist Russia in the late 19th century.

A variety of unpublished period photographs and technical drawings further contribute to the work. This book covers the definitive line of Finnish variants such as the m/91, m/91-24, m/27, m/28, m/28-30, m/39, and m/91-30.
