The British Edda' is actually a Sumerian, Egyptian and English
mythological epic, narrating the fantastical adventures of Wodan, Loki
and El, who comprise the 'Eden Triad' of the Garden of Eden. An
adventurous tale rich with mythological wonder and legendary story
telling, this text combines heroic narrative with speculative insights
into ancient history and the origins of civilisation. It promises to
entertain and provoke the mind of any discerning reader. Laurence
Waddell was an explorer, Professor of Chemistry and Pathology, British
army surgeon, collector, philologist, archaeologist, Doctor of Laws - as
well as an author! First published in 1930, 'The British Edda' is now
re-printed with a biography of the author, and is a must-have for any
collector of Waddell's work.
