Summary "Anteckningar öfver Fälttågen emot Ryssland åren 1808 och 1809" by Carl Johan Holm is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work provides firsthand insights into the military campaigns in Finland during the early stages of the Finnish War against Russia. The narrative is captured from the perspective of Holm, who served as a regimental chaplain, focusing primarily on the actions and experiences of the Savolaks Brigade. The opening portion of the book establishes the context of the conflict, outlining the initial fears and apprehensions of the Finnish people regarding a potential annexation by Russia, as discussed between Tsar Alexander and Napoleon. Holm shares his evident concern over the lack of preparation for the defense of Finland, particularly under King Gustaf IV Adolf's leadership. He highlights the bravery and loyalty of the Finnish forces, detailing early military maneuvers and the significant events surrounding the Savolaks Brigade's deployment. The text reflects a sense of urgency and yearning for action amidst the chaos of military retreat and strategy in the face of an advancing enemy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
