Analysis Of Into The Wild By Chris Mccandless

In the book Into The Wild, Chris Mccandless a young man from a well to do family hitchhiked to Alaska and walked alone into the wilderness north of Mt. McKinley. He gave up his savings to a charity, abandoned his car and most of his possessions, burned all his cash, and went to live off the environment. Four months later his decomposed body was found in an abandoned bus by a moose hunter. People from all over heard of his story and put theories as to why he went into the wild in the first place, and why he died, but I believe he went into the wild to find answer and to find happiness.
Chris went Into The Wild to discover what is happiness like in one of his famous quote “happiness is only real when shared” Something he found out far too late.
