Summary

This is an academic review of the Atlas of Finland (Fennia 17), published in 1899 by the Finnish Geographical Society. The review systematically evaluates the atlas's coverage of Finland's natural, demographic, political, and economic conditions. It commends the technical excellence of the hypsometric map, the detailed climatological data, and the comprehensive agricultural and communication maps, while noting shortcomings such as insufficient precipitation data, less effective phytogeographic representations, and an overcrowded industrial map. The review concludes that the atlas and its accompanying text constitute the most indispensable reference for understanding Finland, reflecting the nation's scientific achievement and patriotic spirit.
