The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown.
This is a true story, drawn from personal journals and memories, of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really is. The University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team never was expected to defeat the elite teams of the East Coast and Great Britain, yet they did, going on to shock the world by defeating the German team rowing for Adolf Hitler.
