A Handbook of Traditional Living
G**R
Great read.
A great book. It wasn’t long, but it definitely got right into things. It is great for explaining what tradition actually is and why it is important, opposed to the assumption that “tradition = bad” that many people have today. Great for self improvement.

A Masterly Splendid Summay
For those venturing in the real world of Master Evola this is a must read! For those wishing to breathe pure oxygen on the highest peaks of the intellect, this is a must read! For those who seek to break free from this abhorrent modern world, this is a must read. For those doubting themselves about their own sanity, this is A MUST READ! For those of you who despise the herd, this is surely not to be missed. Keep it under your pillow and draw from it freely.

A blueprint for sane living in an insane society.
A how-to guide for Traditionalists in living in açcord with the eternal primordial values of Tradition within a society predicated on almost everything in opposition to such values. This work is slim at less than aone hundred pages but addresses all facets of life, from formation of friendship between men to marriage and family life. The importance of community in sustaining these along with an all-encompassing spirituality, with inspiration from the writings primarily of Julius Evola and Rene Guenon. Highly recommended for young people or those of any age venturing down this difficult path in an increasingly chaotic and degenerate society.

This book was my introduction to the new right. Several books later I've come to be immersed in their political and social philosophy. This book was my beginning into their world, and I hope that it's yours as well.

The same as the first printing (before there was a 2nd book in the series).
The book is the same as the first printing, before there was a 2nd book in the series and Roman numerals were added to the front cover.The book is divided into two sections, which largely conforms to a "theory & practice" division.In theory, it sticks more towards Julius Evola; in practice, Corneliu Codreanu.I liked aspects of the book, more in the first half than the second. I suspect most of my issues with "Tradition" stems from grammar: the entire endeavor seems to be fraught with imprecise language and unnecessary erudition and verbiage. The book seems rather faithful to the source material, to its credit, but Julius Evola is a fairly unique figure, and one that most readers will likely not be indifferent too, for better or worse.

Inspiring and Corrective
Nice analog to the works of Julius Evola. A lot of it is basically a shorter version of 'Revolt Against the Modern World.'

Copy pasta
Summerise some Evola texts. Use serious sounding languange. Target group 15 year olds without father figure or bad in sports. No real contend.

Look actually reading Evola is pretty hard going, okay?!
But seriously goys, this pamphlet contains a good, succinct summary of Evolian Traditionalism, as well as providing some good tips on fighting the Greater (inner) War, plus guidelines on organising IRL groups inspired by that based Romanian chad, Cornelius Codreanu. Well worth buying, if a little pricey considering it can be read in an hour.

Too dated to view it as anything other then a historic document. A view of the past no forward or aspiring virtues in this tradition.

Short introduction to radical traditionalism
This short book concentrates on Evola and Codreanu's works. Perfect to guess if this movement is your cup of tea or not.

Vapid, shallow, silly.
As a traditionalist myself, I found this book completely bereft of any useful value. We have a useful traditional system that takes tithe - it's called Christianity.
