Once a pastor, he abandoned Christianity in his later years because Christian morals were in conflict with his racialism. He turned to a form of Germanic Neopaganism which also suited his liberal views on sexuality." (Wikipedia). Moderate wear on the cover, particularly along the edges and the edges of the spine. Front end paper edge is chipped and bears a half inch open tear. Unmarked except for a previous owner's signature on the front endpaper and the number "318", and a mark in the margin on page 333. Binding is sound. A nice copy. Full refund if not satisfied.
