The Secret of the Runes

The runes are said to have "revealed themselves" to von List, uncovering a complete cosmology and esoteric understanding of the primeval Teutonic/Aryan peoples, and becoming the cornerstone of his ideology. No other work so clearly and simply sets forth the full spectrum of von List's fantastic vision of a mystical philosophy based on Germanic principles.
