"In this article, I analyze Mormon emigration from Finland as one response to the introduction of Mormonism to nineteenth-century Finnish society. First, I discuss the ideological foundation and context of the phenomenon, addressing questions such as why Mormon emigration occurred and how it functioned in practice. Second, I chart related conditions in Finland during the second half of the nineteenth century, including the general practice of immigration to North America. This is followed by a presentation and analysis of the Mormon emigrants from Finland, along with an account of their varied journeys and circumstances. Finally, I explore images of and societal attitudes toward Mormon immigration, also contrasting them with attitudes about emigration from Finland in general." [From author's introduction]
