Onward and Into the Wild
Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer is the true story of Christopher McCandless, who went on a two-year wilderness hike after graduating from college. McCandless, who was called Alexander Supertramp while he traveled, graduated in 1990 from Emory University with high grades and then stopped communicating with his family, gave away his savings, and began to travel. By April of 1992, he had reached Alaska. He had only ten pounds of rice, a .22 caliber rifle, a camera, a guide on edible plants in the area, and a few other books. He survived for about 119 days, while keeping a journal, was then found dead in an abondoned bus by moose hunters. This where the book, Into the Wild, begins.
