I also was very impressed with the book Into the Wilds and the movie and,unlike lots of conservatives,do not condemn this young man for his quest,misguided as it often was.He did WORK for much of his money and wasn’t out there grubbing off of society.He saw something intrinsically wrong with modern society and it resonated very much with tied down with bills and responsiblities me.
Its also very well written.

Actually, I would say Chris McCandless was very conservative in many ways. I read this book in two days and just started the reread last night. I think several of us Freepers should meet up in Alaska this summer.
