Might Is Right, Ragnar Redbeard's 1896 primary text from Auditorium Press, is a polemical tract later found to be the uncredited source of passages that appeared in The Satanic Bible in 1969. Its strength is that it is the actual primary text, useful for tracing that documented borrowing directly against its source. Its limit is that it is a polemical tract, not a work of scholarship; it is cited here for its documented later influence, not for the validity of its own arguments.
