"Wildly Inside" transports you through the Inside Passage of British Columbia and Southeast Alaska—-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. Travel through the Salish Sea, the Great Bear Rainforest, and coastal Southeast Alaska via imagery created largely at the pace of a kayak. Witness the beauty of this remarkable seascape while learning about the creatures who make their homes here. This photo book makes a lovely companion to the author's award-winning memoir " One Woman's Journey Through the Inside Passage." One dollar of each book sale will benefit Pacific Wild, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the Great Bear Rainforest in British Columbia. EDITORIAL "Wildly Inside" is an amazing, blazing companion to Susan Marie Conrad's riveting narrative account, "INSIDE," about her 1,148-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! ~ Michael Modzelewski, author "Inside Living with Killer Whales, Bald Eagles, and Kwakiutl Indians”
Susan Marie Conrad is an expedition kayaker, award-winning author, public speaker, and lover of all-things-wild. Long slow paddles in long skinny boats are her jam, having completed two approximately 1,200-mile solo through-paddles of the Inside Passage from Washington State to Southeast Alaska. She uses these expeditions, and her resulting life transformations, as a springboard for her work, focusing on inspiring people to reach their full potential. She's authored three books about the Inside Passage and loves sharing her personal stories on the page and the stage inspiring people and demonstrating the power of self-belief and tenacity.
