Have you read Krakauer's book? The entire thing? I thought it was brilliant and so do most people. He is a highly acclaimed author. No one sees him as simplistic. And he had to leave the US for a few years after that book because of death threats. As a coincidence, one of my friends who fishes in the summer and surfs in Mexico in the winter helped him learn to surf when he was escaping. I thought the book was so good, I bought a dozen copies and gave them to friends. I'll tell you my number one problem with Mormons. They do not educate their kids. Every single Mormon kid who has ever come to my front door, or I have spoken with, and we have a ton of Mormons up here, did not believe in evolution and when I asked them very simple questions they could not answer them. They seemed very uneducated. I compared them to my liberal friends kids the same age and those kids are light years ahead of them intellectually.
