At last, it's ready, and I'm thrilled to share it with the world. I created this photo book to showcase some of the thousands of images from my pelagic adventures along this remarkable coastline, freeing them from the depths of my computer.

In addition to the redesigned front cover, the interior images are beautifully saturated on satiny paper that feels like velvet on your fingertips, and the binding for this hardcover edition is stout!

Wildly Inside is available ONLY on my website, and I'm offering a 20% discount for one week.

Special kudos to EXPED for making this project possible, and to Kaj Bune and Martin Ryer for contributing some of their professional images. EXTRA CREDIT: One dollar of each book sale supports Pacific Wild, a Canadian conservation organization that has taught me what true dedication to an ecosystem is.

Many, but not all, of the images in Wildly Inside have emerged at the pace of a kayak. It is my hope that the pages of this book will transport you through the Inside Passage—a visual journey where you'll smell the muskiness of a whale's breath, hear the thunderous waves of a wide-awake ocean, feel the reverberations of the big ships passing by, and be totally awestruck by the magic of it all. And I remain hopeful that the beauty and the abundance of the sea will inspire us all to act on its behalf.

Enjoy the teaser photos below of a few of the interior pages!

Peer Review:

WILDLY WONDERFUL! Wildly Inside is an amazing, blazing companion to Susan Marie Conrad's riveting narrative account, INSIDE, about her 1,200-mile solo kayak journey through the Inside Passage to Alaska. This book is packed full of one stunning picture after another, complemented by inspirational quotes and nature factoid nuggets. Every page is a wonderful window into one of the most beautiful geographical areas in the world, and at the same time a progressive reveal of the author's soul, overflowing with honor, respect and love for the challenging coastal corridor she paddled through, dodging bodacious bears, breaching whales, haystack waves, and topaz icebergs. Go ahead, take the ride with this adventurer, writer, photographer, and mermaid with a kayak tail—you won't be disappointed!
