The book 'Into the Wild' is based on a true story of Christopher J McCandless, a well educated and able young man from a good family who chased after his dreams and ambitions.
After graduating from Emory University, Chris gave the balance of his education saving account to Oxfam and disappeared from society to live the life of a recluse and venture into territories where not many have dared. He gave up. of course, his family and friends in doing so.
The book tells the story from perfect strangers he met, his adolecence, his adventures and failures leading to his untimely passing. The book also gives you examples of other adventures that have similarities to Chris as well as the author who can relate to Chris's passion for life.
It is a great book and a great story that will inspire.
Into the Wild was published in 1996 and spent two years on the New York Times bestseller list.Visit the website:
