Product Description
Our Troth is the single most comprehensive book available on the reborn religion of Heathenry -- the pre-Christian religion of the Germanic peoples. First published in 1993 but out of print for years, Our Troth is back in print, featuring updates and additions from its original compiler, Kveldulf Gundarsson, and from many other Heathen writers, all edited by well-known author Diana L. Paxson. Volume 2 covers the Heathen holy year, lore and rites for the major holidays, and ways to work Heathenry into every facet of life. It includes an extensive glossary and reading list for further study.

 Great book, 2008-10-31
If you want to understand the practice of Asatru this book as well as the first volume are where you want to begin. I read a bunch of other books on Asatru before reading Our Troth. I would recommend skipping to Out Troth.
I just want to make a comment on that Pedophile review. The guys off his rocker. But don't just take my word for it, buy the book and decide for yourself. I could see pedophiles being attracted to Christianity because the religion is full of patriarchal authorities that can easily abuse the trust placed in them to commit crimes. Asatru is not setup in this manner and so they would not benefit from coming to Asatru. There is no acceptance of pedophilia in Asatru. Members of this faith also have a more severe outlook on betrayal than Christianity.

Great book!, 2008-10-30
A very thorough book. I feel that this book is a good starting point into learning about Asatru. The numerous citations and lists of other books provide an easily followed course of study. Highly recommended!

Asatru beliefs, 2008-10-11
A re release of the basic beliefs of Asatru as practiced by the Troth. A great book for those wishing to know the basics of Asatru belief as well as practical practices for those following this path. I give it a big thumbs up!!!

 A newcomers perspective, 2008-05-11
For anyone interested in the religion of pre-christian northern Europe, this book along with volume one is a must have. I would recomend both volumes and the Poetic and Prose Eddas as a starting point to further learning. These four books have become, for me, the cornerstones of a very interesting journey.

A good start to a Book hoard, 2008-03-26
This is an extremely well written and useful book for those who are just starting on the path of Asatru. I highly recommend this book. It has good information on the faith and an excellent lingustic guide and a top flight bibliography.
