Meticulously pieced together from personal experiences that come with years of travel, an extensive knowledge of historic and scholarly works, and a deep appreciation of Latin American art and culture - both ancient and modern - critically-acclaimed biographer Neil Baldwin has created a mosaic of words and images retelling the myth of the Plumed Serpent (or Quetzalcoatl) as it has evolved through the millennia. He has also created an essential guidebook for the armchair traveller and passionate tourist alike.
