{"product_id":"the-mccandless-mecca-josh-spice-9781949450002","title":"The McCandless Mecca: A Pilgrimage to the Magic Bus of the Stampede Trail","description":"\"The Stampede Trail has become a passageway on which hikers and hunters, seekers and sportsmen, Speedoed mountain bikers and North Slope militiamen cross paths. The Magic Bus is becoming a national shrine, a holy pilgrim site, a modern-day Mecca. And I was determined to see it, too.\" So writes Ken Ilgunas, who, in the summer of 2011, moved up to Alaska to, like thousands before him, embark on a pilgrimage to explore the storied bus of the Stampede Trail-the very bus in which Chris McCandless of Into the Wild died twenty years before. What was supposed to be little more than a \"literary tour\" of a book that Ilgunas had \"merely enjoyed,\" would become a humorous, thought-provoking, and, at times, treacherous journey to the very heart of Alaska.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Josh Spice, Ken Ilgunas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1949450007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781949450002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Acorn Abbey Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.08w x 0.17d","brand":"Josh Spice","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991284482303,"sku":"9781949450002","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8efa5ef7-c6cb-441c-a1a0-b188a00f638a.jpg?v=1683309414","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mccandless-mecca-josh-spice-9781949450002","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
