>>1236681also in for the book list. gunna be wrapping up into the wild soon and i don't know how i feel about the rest of my current line up. i am lovin into the wild but i also really like krakauer's writing style in general (under the banner of heaven was one of the first nonfiction books that i fell deeply in love with)
as far as what im looking for (outside of an /out/ them obviously)
i like narrative nonfiction that is tightly framed in a way that it answers one question and where the setting itself is one of the catalysts. i want to learn "with" the writer. no open ended preach-fest and self ejaculation (pretty much the exact opposite of stuff like what "uncle ted" wrote).
for example some of my favorite nonfiction books are
in cold blood
under the banner of heaven
Columbine
the mirage man
billion dollar spy
suggestions welcome.
