Allan Hjelt – Entreprenör i brytningstider

Allan Hjelt (1885-1945), Bo Hjelt's father, was a successful businessman whose life and career are strongly linked to Finnish industry, the redesign of central Helsinki, the patronage of Finnish leading artists, designers and architects and the acquisition of munitions during both the Winter War and the Continuation War. In this biography we meet a man who built an empire, lost almost everything and started again.
The book is available in bookstores in Helsinki, and in your online bookstore.
ISBN:    9789526943305
The book will be released in Finnish in September 2021.
