Jörg Lanz von Liebenfels' ideology can only be described as mad and genocidal. He saw the "lesser races" as the result of Aryans having sex with animals or pygmies. Himmler may have been influenced by him.

Also, he was a former Cistercian, but was excluded for breaking his vow of celibacy and indulging in heresy.

The book is very good, but the subject matter is boring.

Lists economic positions seem close to Distributism, which I see as another indication that there is nothing uniquely Christian about that ideology.

He was also a friend of the aristocracy rather than democracy.

List's views on Charlemagne are pretty much the same as those of many prominent Nazis.

Goodrick-Clarke sees a manichean character in the racial struggle as described by the ariosophists, as I saw it in the Nazis.

Reading about the ariosophists is painful. How can someone waste his life on constructing such a castle of lies and falsehoods?

The last pages were much better than the ones before.

Last five books were on phrenology and craniology. I like how Chase links ideologues together.
