FROM THE PUBLISHERS<br />
We feel privileged and excited<br />
to be bringing you this special<br />
edition. For the past 30 years<br />
Thor Janson has dedicated his abilities,<br />
talents and resources to attain a goal that<br />
any rational human would agree with.<br />
Simply put, “To preserve enough cloud<br />
forest habitat in Central America to ensure<br />
that the quetzal may continue to be the<br />
living, legendary symbol of freedom.”<br />
Through Janson’s writing, anecdotes and<br />
extraordinary photography, we get an exclusive<br />
glimpse into the mist-enshrouded<br />
realm of the cloud forest and its fascinating<br />
inhabitants. The most noted, revered and<br />
elusive of all is the Resplendent Quetzal.<br />
Kulkulkán. The Quetzal-Serpent. Guatemala’s<br />
national bird and the name of its<br />
money. The quetzal appears again and again<br />
throughout Maya tradition, lore and art.<br />
The Maya even used the exquisite feathers<br />
as currency.<br />
Just as Thor has woven an image for us,<br />
we have woven his incredible stories and<br />
photographs throughout the magazine. For<br />
the story line just follow the ...continued on page....<br />
For his other photos, flip through the pages.<br />
You will find his biography on page 10.<br />
We thank Thor for sharing his passion<br />
with us and we hope you enjoy this issue.<br />
