From his front-row seat, Palley pens a compelling, personal narrative of what it's like to watch the world burn. His journey into realizing that climate change is a current disaster, not a future one, is ultimately a destination we're all going to have to reach. Let Palley be your guide to understanding the new normal. -- Wes Siler, editor and columnist at Outside magazine Very few photographers understand the nuances of fire like Stuart Palley. With Into the Inferno, Palley takes the reader on his journey to the heart of some of the most historic and destructive fires in the United States, and provides compelling insight into the complexities of photographing wildfires while trying to stay safe, and ultimately making one of the most poignant and important photographic records of the effects of climate change to date. This book is essential reading for anyone looking for insight into the treacherous journey of those covering and fighting fires. -- Lynsey Addario, Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist and author of It's What I Do and Of Love & War Palley mostly shoots at night, making long exposures that pulse in a cosmic blaze of heat and color. -- Wired, praise for the author

Stuart is a much needed and powerful voice in the face of the climate emergency. Like his photos, his writing viscerally captures the unique and haunting experience each fire has on ecosystems, survivors, and the communities impacted. Into the Inferno captures the frontlines of each megafire and translates each experience into urgency, loss, and a sobering foreshadowing of our future in an age of fire. -- Julia Jackson, founder and CEO, Grounded Summit and Foundation From his front-row seat, Palley pens a compelling, personal narrative of what it's like to watch the world burn.
