Sheltered from the open Pacific Ocean by numerous seaward islands, The Inside Passage wends its way through a labyrinth of channels, straits, sounds and passages along the northwest coast of North America. Over 20 years Pat and Rosemarie Keough have explored this maritime maze in small boats and large ships, by plane and car, and on foot and skis, always with camera in hand. The resulting body-of-work is inspiring, powerful and above all aesthetic.

From a field of over 5,200 entries, including titles from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Carnegie and the Getty, the Keoughs’ Labyrinth Sublime received the Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold medal for “Outstanding Book of the Year – Best Book Arts Craftsmanship.”

Accompanied by the custom clam shell box: Green morocco title and spine inserts, natural linen; interior green flocked velvet cushions, page block supports.
