Cedron, V. L. Simpson, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team (http://www.pgdp.net) "Kalevala, The Land of the Heroes, Volume One" by Elias Lönnrot and W. F. Kirby is a compilation of epic poetry published in the 19th century. Drawn from Finnish, Karelian, and Ingrian folklore, it tells of Earth's creation and the fierce conflicts between the land of Kalevala and Pohjola. At its center lies the Sampo, a mythical wealth-making machine coveted by both sides. This national epic shaped Finnish identity and influenced writers worldwide, including J. R. R. Tolkien.
