Stephen Pollington Confirmed for Asatru Folk Assembly's Summer Event

We received an email from English author Stephen Pollington, our special guest for the Asatru Folk Assembly's "Midsummer in the Sierras." He wrote, "I have bought my travel insurance for the trip and started to prepare the talks and powerpoint shows. They are based on what you saw last time [at the Florida Moot several years ago] but I have revised some of the ideas and had a few new insights..." This is great news, not only because he's definitely "on" but because I've seen the presentations to which he's referring, and you're going to love them!

Another treat - Stephen is having limited copies of his very latest (as in, "not out until later this summer") book printed here in the United States, to save the weight and risk of bringing them across the Atlantic. As an attendee, you'll be able to purchase them at Midsummer and get them autographed by Stephen himself. The book title is Elder Gods: The Otherworld of Early England - just the sort of thing to interest AFA members.

You can visit Stephen's site at http://www.stevepollington.com to learn more about him and his books.

If you're an AFA member or a friend of the AFA, and haven't yet signed up for Midsummer in the Sierras 2011, go to the AFA web site and fill out the application. You won't want to miss this year!
