Unbelievable. One can but aspire to have his soul made from the same stuff as this.

I always wondered if Evola knew of Ungern, awesome to see my two favorite political figures cross some sort of path. As much as I'd love to believe Guenon's assertion that the Baron was never executed and died of natural causes, there is a picture out there of him in Soviet custody. I'm also surprised that his connection to Keyserling (who Evola wasn't that fond of) wasn't mentioned.

I also wonder how many essays Evola wrote in his lifetime, especially with regards to mountaineering (Evola was the person that sparked my passion in the sport). Obviously this one isn't in any of the published books. Guess I can look forward to more Arktos catalogs of Evolian essays for the rest of my existence.

Wrangel, The Bloody Baron, Kornilov: These men were the best of Russia and tragically they failed to save her from Bolshevik barbarism and tyranny. Excellent article, I think you’ve earned a subscription.

I just read that Evola reviewed Yockeys imperium. Do you have that? If so, translate it!

I have this essay. There is an English version available in print form, but it's terrible. I'll have a new translation up in a week or so, my friend!

I purchased a physical copy at an auction over a decade ago, my friend. I have yet to find it on the internet—or anywhere else, for that matter—in English or Italian!
