书籍描述

内容简介

The #1 New York Times–bestselling story about American Olympic triumph in Nazi Germany

For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant.

It was an unlikely quest from the start. With a team composed of the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team was never 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. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find a real place for himself in the world. Drawing on the boys’ own journals and vivid memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, Brown has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.

作者简介

精彩书评

“For those who like adventure stories straight-up, THE BOYS IN THE BOAT… is this year’s closest approximation of Unbroken….It’s about the University of Washington’s crew team: “Nine working-class boys from the American West who at the 1936 Olympics showed the world what true grit really meant.”
--New York Times

“If you imagined a great regatta of books about rowing, then Brown’s BOYS IN THE BOAT certainly makes the final heat….”
--Boston Globe

“The astonishing story of the UW’s 1936 eight-oar varsity crew and its rise from obscurity to fame,…The individual stories of these young men are almost as compelling as the rise of the team itself. Brown excels at weaving those stories with the larger narrative, all culminating in the 1936 Olympic Games…A story this breathtaking demands an equally compelling author, and Brown does not disappoint. The narrative rises inexorably, with the final 50 pages blurring by with white-knuckled suspense as these all-American underdogs pull off the unimaginable.”
--The Seattle Times

“Cogent history…, and a surprisingly suspenseful tale of triumph.”
--USA Today

“This riveting tale of beating the odds (and the Germans) at the 1936 Olympics is a rousing story of American can-do-ism. It’s also a portrait of the nine boys who first rowed together for the University of Washington, and of the one in particular who made the sport his family and his home.”
--Parade

次代替师父,就弄得一团糟,如果我一直守在坟旁的话,绝不会发生这种事。”  想到了那个红衣人,心中不禁越发地奇怪,忖道:那人的功夫,难道会高过我这么多……为什么我连他的形影都没有看清楚呢?  这真是一件不可思议的事情,他为何要把石老人劫走呢?  江元百思莫解,脚下如飞,沿途均是极荒僻之地,四下毫无人迹,他心中想道:  “我先赶回蓬莱镇再作道理吧!”  于是他施展了出奇的轻功,身子快得像是一支泻箭,在荒野之中,如飞而下。  傍晚时分,江元已来到蓬莱镇,镇内灯火辉煌,颇为热闹。  江元慢慢走进镇来,他望着这满街忙碌而又欢乐的人,心中颇为感慨,忖道:像他们这种生活,哪有我们这些烦恼?  这时江元对自己的遭遇,不禁深深地感到悲哀。  他正在慢行之际,突然有人在他肩头拍了一掌,笑道:“又遇见你了!”  江元回头望时,却是冷古。  江元不禁有些意外,含笑道
