Description
Taking place in the same era as Laura Hillenbrand's Seabiscuit and Unbroken, The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown is a riveting account of the University of Washington's 1936 rowing team's journey to the Olympic gold medal. Against all odds, the team of underdogs from working-class backgrounds defeated their elite rivals, including the powerful German team rowing for Adolf Hitler in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Brown's detailed and factual writing style captures the essence of this remarkable story, highlighting the emotional journey of one rower, Joe Rantz, as he fights to regain his self-worth and find a place to belong. This team's triumph is a testament to their trust in each other, as well as the guidance of their enigmatic coach and visionary British boat builder.
