The Return of Odin: The Modern Renaissance of Pagan… de Richard Rudgley

There is no structure or plan to the book, it randomly lists events, ideas, history, beliefs and any trivia related to paganism. It mentions Viking dildos, Hitler's secret Antarctic base where he escaped after WW2 and many crazier things that I have already forgotten.
