This exclusive event is open only to donors of the Foundation for Baltimore County Public Library. Chris McCandless gave away his savings, hitchhiked across North America, walked into the wilderness of Alaska and starved to death in 1992. His story fascinated author Jon Krakauer who wrote about it in his bestseller
Into the Wild. Now his sister, Carine McCandless, tells her own story while filling in the blanks in her new book
The Wild Truth (HarperCollins, November 2014.) Foundation donors are invited to meet Ms. McCandless before her public appearance as well as BCPL’s new director Paula Miller. Light refreshments served.
For more information or to RSVP, please send an email to RSVP@bcpl.net. You can donate online or by calling 410-887-6196.
