Thuuri( March 12, 1854 – November 30, 1936) was the first Sami author to publish a secular work in a Sami language.
His first book was called" Muitalus sámiid birra An Account of the Sami") and tells about the life of people herding reindeer in the Jukkasjärvi region of northern Sweden at the beginning of the 20th century.
An eclectic and nuanced text," Muitalus" includes details on Sami traditions of child rearing, hunting, healing, yoik, and folklore.

In 1904, he met the art student Emilie Demant Hatt on a train in northern Scandinavia.

Three years later, having learned the Sami language, Demant- Hatt returned to northern Scandinavia and lived with Turi's family.
In 1908, Turi and Demant- Hatt lived in a mountain cabin where she assisted him with his manuscript.
Turi died in Jukkasjärvi.
The book has been translated into some ten languages, including Swedish, Danish, Finnish, English, Norwegian, German, French, Italian, Hungarian and Japanese.
