Wilmot-Buxton is a collection of stories rooted in Norse mythology, likely written in the early 20th century. The book compiles tales drawn from the Eddas and Sagas, exploring the adventures and trials of gods, giants, and mythical creatures of the North. It brings to life narratives filled with themes of heroism, divine wisdom, and the eternal struggle between good and evil that pervades Norse mythology.  The opening of the book introduces readers to the origins of the world as described in Norse myth. It begins with a depiction of the primordial void, which precedes the creation of Earth, and the emergence of Ymir, the first giant. The account details how, after Ymir's death, the gods Odin and his brothers use his body to shape the world. This section sets the stage for the complex relationships among gods, giants, and humanity, as well as the foundational mythology surrounding the creation of the cosmos, the rise of the gods, and their ongoing conflicts with the giants. Through rich imagery and allegorical storytelling, the opening reveals the captivating narratives that intertwine the destinies of these characters in Norse lore.
