Pagans: The End of Traditional Religion and the Rise of Christianity by James J. O'Donnell

3.0

This book provides an outline of what we believe pre-christian western religions might have looked like. I would have preferred to have more comprehensive and detailed accounts of the different religions and cults of Ancient Europe and the Mediterranean, as well as more detail regarding the process by which Christianity supplanted the old religions. Overall, this book is a good starting point for its topic.
