Reviews

"Vanstrum's physical daring, scientific curiosity, and refined aesthetics are all evident in his spirited prose and elegant photographs as he chronicles his remarkable adventures in the waters off Hawaii, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, various Caribbean islands, and Alaska."--Booklist"This engaging body of work is part memoir, part travelogue, and part science writing. It's the most eloquent dissertation by a surfer-turned-naturalist since Daniel Duane's Caught Inside: a Year in the Life of A California Surfer."--Terry Rodgers, The San Diego Union-Tribune"California photographer Glenn Vanstrum has traveled the world, documenting marine life, and he tells many delightful tales about sea lions, sharks, humpback whales, and other ocean beasts getting in his face. He knows enough marine science to be enlightening, and he gets in enough trouble underwater to keep the narrative moving swiftly."--National Geographic Adventure
