About this eBook
Two of Finland’s Mannerheim Cross recipients Antti Vorho and Mikko Pöllä were Ingrian Finns or Inkeri who, like many others, grew up in the region of Ingermanland within Soviet Russia. What drove them to escape across the Sestra River to Finland? And what of the fates of those they left behind in their hometown of Valkeasaari?
