Publisher's Synopsis
This work is a fine example of the rising late 19th century interest in mythology beyond the typical bible-related classics of Rome and its prior counterparts in Greece. Containing a series of twelve Norse legends, it also includes a fairly lengthy (and handy) final index of terms. Of especial note for some occult paths is the inclusion of regeneration after Ragnarok here; this is compared by the author of this work with the story of the resurrection of Revelation even as the Norse deities are (occasionally helpfully) compared to the Roman.
