Practice without pressure...character analysis

In what ways was McCandless like Waterman and McCunn? How did he differ from them? Use at least two quotes in a paragraph that explores the similarities and differences between McCandless and each of the men.  Get to the essentials of their respective characters; don't limit your analysis to superfical differences.

Two to three sentences...responses...

I agree with ___________ because..._________.

and/or

I had somewhat different take on ____________ because _________________.



What are the essential ways that McCandless and Ruess were similar? Embed at least two quotes into a paragraph that examines and explains these two young men. Again, get to the essentials of their respective characters; don't limit your analysis to superficialities.  In short, what made them tick? 

Homework: Taking stock of what matters...One typed page, single-spaced 12 point font unedited journal entry...10 completion points...submit to turnitin.com; (no paper copy)...I will read, but will not grade.  In short, what makes you tick? What, in this life, matters most to you? What are you willing (perhaps gladly, perhaps reluctantly) to give up or sacrifice if necessary to get what you most desire? And what is it that you most desire to find and experience?
