Kihnu raamat - Theodor Saar

It unites three famous Kihnu residents – forest captain Kihnu Jõnn,
painter Jaan Oad and scholar Theodor Saar.
Theodor Saar, a great Kihnu expert, describes the islanders' past
introduces Kihnu to the full-blooded life, seafaring and shipbuilding of the Kihnu people
from the eternal family mark and allows modern people to speak in clear Saare language
stories from Kihnu Jõnn.
What Theodor Saar did with a pen, Jaan Oad did with a brush – the book contains a lot
reproductions of Oad's magnificent paintings depicting island life.
The book is a memorial to Theodor Saar and a monument to the people of Kihnu.
