White Christmas: Myths and Mysteries of the Pagan Yule
Before carolers sang of silent nights and evergreen trees adorned Victorian parlors, the depths of winter belonged to something older, wilder, and far more mysterious.

White Christmas: Myths and Mysteries of the Pagan Yule invites readers into the shadowed heart of ancient midwinter traditions. From sacred fires and ritual feasts to the spectral riders of the Wild Hunt, author Patrick W. Chouinard uncovers the Anglo-Saxon roots of our modern holiday customs, and the forgotten wisdom they carry.

Step inside the hearth-lit hall of history, where evergreen boughs whisper of rebirth, and gifts are more than tokens; they are echoes of ancestral rites. Whether you're a seeker of folklore, a student of comparative mythology, or simply curious about the deeper magic of the season, this book offers a revelatory journey through the myths that still shape our winter wonder.
