About the Book

Hiljaisuus laskeutuu stadionille, kun urheilijat kokoontuvat pohjoisen taivaan alle, heidän hengityksensä näkyy kylmässä ilmassa - jokainen kilpailija kantaa kansakuntansa toiveiden painoa. Tässä vaikuttavassa kuvauksessa Suomen olympiahistoriasta kilpailun jännitys rinnastuu hiljaiseen, periksiantamattomaan voimaan nimeltä sisu, ominaisuuteen, joka on määrittänyt suomalaisten urheilijasukupolvien menestystä maailman näyttämöllä. Varhaisten 1900-luvun olympialaisten taustalla kertomus syventyy niiden henkilöiden elämään ja kamppailuihin, jotka muuttivat suomalaiset urheilutarinat kestäviksi legendoiksi, paljastaen sinnikkyyden ja ylpeyden syvät lähteet, jotka ruokkivat heidän pyrkimystään huippuosaamiseen. Kirja kuvaa tinkimättömällä otteella urheilullisen sinnikkyyden karua todellisuutta, aina ankaran pohjoisen ilmaston harjoittelun rasituksista kansainvälisen kilpailun tunnekuohuihin. Se tarkastelee paitsi olympia-areenan fyysisiä vaatimuksia, myös syvää kansallista ylpeyttä, joka ajoi nämä urheilijat haastamaan itsensä ja määrittelemään uudelleen Suomen aseman olympiakilpailujen historiassa. Teos on osoitus todellisten urheilutarinan voimasta inspiroida - se tarjoaa lukijalle sekä sykähdyttävän suomalaisen urheiluelämäkerran että näkymän laajempaan suomalaiseen kulttuuriperintöön. Tätä kirjaa ei ollut saatavilla vuosikymmeniin, mutta nyt Alpha Editions on julkaissut sen uudelleen. Se on restauroitu tätä päivää ja tulevia sukupolvia varten. Tämä painos ei ole pelkkä uusintapainos - se on keräilyharvinaisuus ja kulttuuriaarre. Niille, joita kiinnostavat historialliset urheilukuvaukset, suomalaisten olympiaurheilijoiden henki tai olympialaisten kestävä inspiraatio, tämä entisöity teos tarjoaa ainutlaatuisen mahdollisuuden kokea sinnikkyys, sydän ja historia, jotka kaikuvat yhä kauas maaliviivan tuolle puolen.
