If there were better books written on Arthur Moeller van den Bruck and his Volkisch theories, I would surely rate this book much lower. Sadly, this is the best book I have ever read on Moeller.
The author of this book, who describes himself as a "Calvinist Jew," is quite annoying. I would have preferred for this book to have included Moeller's essay separate from Silfen's annoying criticism. Instead, Silfen's annoying criticism is sprinkled throughout the book like cancer infecting a holy book. Silfen freely admits that he does not understand Moeller's intuitive volk theories. In fact, Silfen even admits he isn't sure that he accomplished what he sought out to do with this book.
Anyways, if you have an interest in Moeller, I highly recommend this book as it is one of the few English language works on Moeller. After all, this book is also much better than Stan Lauryssens' piece of worthless yellow journalism "The Man Who Invented the Third Reich."
Moeller was the "Francis Parker Yockey" of his day, a truly revolutionary thinker, and I hope one day someone translates/republishes his work. It is quite hard to find a copy of Moeller's masterwork 1923 "Das Dritte Reich." Hopefully some modern pro-occidental kultur publishing company like arktos, counter-currents, or wermod and wermod will publish Moeller's works and save them from fading into complete obscurity.
