Alfred Rosenberg (1893-1946) was born Tallinn, Estonia, then part of the Russian Empire.. Like Ivar Lissner he spent some of his early years in Russia before emigrating to Germany.  He is considered to have been one of the leading theorists behind many of the extreme policies of the Nazi Party, in particular its racial ideology. He was tried for war crimes and hanged in 1946.

Rosenberg refers to a master race of ‘Aryan-Nordic-Atlanteans’ in Northern Europe. He  added that there had once been exposed land been Iceland and Greenland when sea levels were 100 metres lower.

He expressed much of his warped ideas in a 1930 book The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which has been described by Joscelyn Godwin as “perhaps the dullest book that ever sold a million copies.” A secondhand copy of the English translation was recently on offer on Amazon.uk for over £400! However, you can download the text for nothing from the Internet (a).
