[from cover:] "The great Epic Poem of the Ancient Britons on the Exploits of King Thor, Arthur or Adam and his Knights in Establishing Civilization, Reforming Eden and Capturing The Holy Grail about 3380-3350 B.C." The Edda not at all "a medley of disjointed Scandianian mythological tales of gods" but an ancient epic British poem recording heroic deeds of historical figures in ancient Mesopotamia and identifying the Sumerians with early Aryans / Indo-Europeans or Goths / Gutim.
