CONTENT: A lot of people came away from reading Into the Wild without grasping why Chris McCandless walked into the Alaska wilderness in 1992, where he survived for more than 100 days before perishing in an abandoned bus. "Lacking explicit facts, they concluded that he was merely self-absorbed, unforgivably cruel to his parents, mentally ill, suicidal, and/or witless. These mistaken assumptions troubled [his sister] Carine. Two decades after her brother's death, she decided it was time to tell Chris's entire story, plainly and directly, without concealing any of the heartbreaking particulars."-Jon Krakauer (from the Foreword). This is a powerful and deeply personal story that includes never-before-seen family photos and draws from private letters written from Chris to Carine to provide a revelatory glimpse into the life of Chris McCandless. >Guaranteed secure packaging, free tracking, and no-hassle return policy.
