Publisher's Synopsis
There is much speculation about the 'occult roots' of National Socialism, yet very little concrete documentation has ever been uncovered. This volume, almost 10 years in the making, contains the collected occult writings of Wiligut, the runic initiate and shadowy 'Secret King' of Germany. Heinrich Himmler - the leader of the SS and possibly the most powerful figure in the Third Reich - commissioned Wiligut to write private reports on Runes, secret Germanic traditions and prehistory. It was through this position that Wiligut came to be known as Himmler's Rasputin.
