Discovered today (via a random #Reddit comment on something entirely unrelated) that the sister of Christopher #McCandless - he of Into The Wild infamy - has written a book named The Wild Truth.
Jon Krakauer, the author of #IntoTheWild, has written the foreword. So that’s another one added to my ever increasing #reading pile.
People who are aware of him seem to have strong feelings on Chris, so I’m interested to read a genuine insight.
This is the last photo of Chris McCandless.
He was an adventurer who lived a nomadic lifestyle. This rich 24-year-old left his life in the city and began a journey across the USA. But things took a tragic turn while he was all alone in the forests of Alaska. He died and his body was found in the abandoned 'Magic bus' after 19 days. #chris #mccandless #magicbus #usa #omg

Für mich eines der beeindruckendsten Bilder der Raumfahrt: Bruce McCandless bei seinem Außeneinsatz als erster Mensch im All ohne eine Verbindung zu einem Raumfahrzeug am 7. Februar 1984.
