Hello Books

I have just seen Umberto Eco - a library of the world, and he was an avid collector of books that are just plain wrong. It could be occult, historians that got it wrong, mistakeful theories, etc. I loved all of the books that was shown in the movie, but I have had a hard time finding any of them or similiar types. Do you have any advice, and or any favourites in this genre?

    The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross by John Allegro. The author asserts that early people used psychedelic mushrooms for religious experiences and started a cult , and due to religious persecution they had to hide their cult rituals so they started Christianity as a front. But over time their front became the actual religion while the mushroom cult part was forgotten. While his assertions and connections are interesting and fun, his sources are basically “trust me bro”.
