For readers of Laura Hillenbrand's Seabiscuit and Unbroken, the dramatic story of the American rowing team that stunned the world at Hitler's 1936 Berlin Olympics
Daniel James Brown’s robust book tells the story of the University of Washington’s 1936 eight-oar crew and their epic quest for an Olympic gold medal, a team that transformed the sport and grabbed the attention of millions of Americans. The sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the boys defeated elite rivals first from eastern and British universities and finally the German crew rowing for Adolf Hitler in the Olympic games in Berlin, 1936.
The emotional heart of the story lies with one rower, Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not for glory, but to regain his shattered self-regard and to find a place he can call home. The crew is assembled by an enigmatic coach and mentored by a visionary, eccentric British boat builder, but it is their trust in each other that makes them a victorious team. They remind the country of what can be done when everyone quite literally pulls together—a perfect melding of commitment, determination, and optimism.
Drawing on the boys’ own diaries and journals, their photos and memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, The Boys in the Boat is an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate story of nine working-class boys from the American west who, in the depths of the Great Depression, showed the world what true grit really meant. It will appeal to readers of Erik Larson, Timothy Egan, James Bradley, and David Halberstam's The Amateurs.

用戶評價
Extraordinary stories of ordinary boys who lived through an amazing era. Very well written.
评分Joe個人的成長經曆太心酸太痛苦瞭，好在後來遇見瞭陪伴他一生的Joyce；9個人和教練以及造船師的故事則熱血激昂，那些小細節和小插麯讓每個人的形象都非常立體；而對同一時期遠在德國柏林發生的一切，與十年前和當下對照，感慨萬韆。後記裏提到大傢每年都要聚會，一直保持聯係，傢人之間也成為朋友，不免想起兄弟連；他們因為職業或個頭的原因都沒有直接上戰場，不過有人去瞭太平洋戰場當軍醫，有人在波音公司參與B-17的製造。當他們1937年結束最後一場比賽的時候，大名鼎鼎的海餅乾登上瞭曆史的舞颱。冥冥中自有天意。
