Product Description
The autobiographical account of Haas' journeys from the claustrophobic city, to the primitive wilderness of coastal British Columbia, Alaska, and California, and into the uncharted regions of the soul. This is a true tale of adventure, misadventure, wonder, mysticism, and miracles. It is a journey into rare experiences, and it is a journey home.
From the Publisher
Jack Haas is one of the world's most enjoyable and inspiring contemporary writers. His life experiences united with his profound penmanship make his books a rhythmic journey into wonder and wisdom. If you mixed the writings of Bruce Chatwin in with the likes of Jack Kerouac, Henry Miller, Joseph Campbell, and Dan Brown, then tossed in some mysticism, madness, and miracles, and sprinkled the entire work with eloquent prose, you would get an amalgamation of literature pointing in the direction of Jack Haas' writing. Thick with humour, humanity, adventure, divinity, debauchery, and song, Haas' true life experiences and passionate wordplay invite us into a living vision of our own mysterious grandeur.
