Wade Davis"If curiosity is your religion, and high adventure your cup of tea, this book is guaranteed to spin your prayer wheel and satiate your thirst." Pat Morrow "This selection of personal narratives is the who's-who of the greatest writers and explorers on earth." James Dorsey "Alpinism is activity and storytelling....Torkildson's collection is proof." Reinhold Messner "The Pilgrimage Chronicles: Embrace the Quest brings together absorbing accounts of exceptional explorers from around the world.

Only a year after their book The Walkabout Chronicles appeared, the editors, Tor and Siffy, have managed to once again pull off an important publishing event." Johan Reinhard
