Into the Wild By Jon Krakauer free PDF book download from here. Jon Krakauer’s “Into the Wild” is a factual account that first came to the public’s attention in 1996. The book expands on a 9,000-word article, “Death of an Innocent”, which Krakauer wrote for the January 1993 issue of Outside. The story was later brought to the big screen in a 2007 film directed by Sean Penn, with Emile Hirsch portraying McCandless.
The narrative follows the journey of Christopher Johnson McCandless, a young man from a privileged background who embarked on a solitary journey into the Alaskan wilderness, north of Mt. McKinley. After completing his college education in 1991, McCandless embarked on a journey through the West and Southwest, inspired by his idols Jack London and John Muir.
