The Quest: Antarctica by Miguel Serrano

Description

The Quest: Antarctica by Miguel Serrano

There are two books in this book, Neither By Sea Nor By Land and Who Calls In The Ice by Miguel Serrano. It is the telling of his quest to the Antarctic. These two earliest works by Serrano are captivated with the journey; the glorious adventure. The esoteric student will not be disappointed. Neither By Sea Nor By Land (1950) not only points to how vital a relationship is with the land, but also that there is no escaping from whence we came. We must play the hand. Anything else, no matter how noble it may seem, is, at least, in part escapism. We must pass through it. In Who Calls In The Ice (1957), we meet a Serrano who is obsessed with his secret mission. O to grasp too tightly is a risk to lose it all; ever balancing on the invisible tightrope. His visions and revelations, his experiences, throughout the Antarctic trip sum up a fantastic adventure full of meaning.
