Title: Distorted, poor scholarship
Review: This author has pretensions to scholarship in his use of other scholars' work, which is summarized according to his own understanding and often footnoted. As one other reviewer pointed out, parts of the book are written in the style of fiction, presumably to make one feel like one was there. The tone of writing is flippant and condescending. The auther follows the lead of Goodrick-Clarke in blaming the phenomenon of Nazism on esotericism, rather than recognizing or admitting the truth that, as was their usual procedure, the Nazis simply distorted and appropriated those occult theories that were useful to their agenda in their distorted form. Many unfair accusations against Blavatsky are repeated in his book from other sources with little or no real evidence, sometimes not even a reference.
