For visitors and listeners of Jon Krakauer and The Lost City of Z, a amazing tale of survival and solitude - the true story of a man who lived together in a tent in the Maine woods, never speaking with someone else and surviving by stealing products from near by cabins for 27 years. In 1986, 20-year-old Christopher Knight remaining his home in Massachusetts, drove to Maine, and disappeared in to the woods. He would not have a talk with another human being until practically three ages later, when he was imprisoned for stealing food. Surviving in a tent even in winter, he previously survived by his wits and courage, developing clever ways to store food and water, to avoid freezing to loss of life. He broke into near by cottages for food, clothes, reading materials, and other procedures, taking only what he needed, but terrifying a community never able to solve the mystical burglaries. Predicated on extensive interviews with Knight himself, this is a vividly thorough profile of the why and how of his private life - as well as the challenges he has faced returning to the earth. A riveting history of survival that asks important questions about solitude, community, and what makes a good life and a deeply moving family portrait of a man who was identified to reside his own way - and been successful.
