Carine McCandless is the sister of Chris McCandless and consulted closely with Jon Krakauer on his bestselling book about Chris, Into the Wild. McCandless reads from and discusses her new book The Wild Truth, her personal memoir of life with Chris McCandless prior to his great adventure and tragic death in Alaska. The spellbinding story of Chris McCandless, who gave away his savings, hitchhiked to Alaska, walked into the wilderness alone, and starved to death in 1992, fascinated the nation. But the real story of Chris’s life and his journey has not yet been told – until now.
