I do believe it was released as non-fiction. Near non-fiction was my own term. So don't let that sway your decision. But it's hard to write a factual account of what exactly happened to McCandless when nobody truly knows for sure. Krakauer's speculation is certainly plausible--and even very likely what happened.

Forgive me, that's my own (senior) terminology that I shouldn't have expected anyone to pick up on: Before Ereader and After Ereader (B.E., A.E.)
