New York Times #1 – Story of American Olympic Racing Victory in Nazi Germany – From the author of the face of this mountain.
For the uninterrupted readers, deep in the depression is an irresistible story of beating odds and finding hope in the most pressing times, an incredible, intimate illustration of how the 1936 Berlin Olympics showed the world to the world at the 1936 Berlin Olympics in 1936.
From the beginning, this is an unlikely task. A team of loggers, shipyard workers and farmers never expected the University of Washington’s eight-stage crew to beat the East Coast and the UK’s elite team, but they did, and he continued to beat the German side to beat the German side for Adolf Hitler. The emotional heart of this story is that Joe Rantz is a teenager with no family or prospects, who not only regains his broken self-reward, but also finds 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 created an unforgettable portrait of the times, celebrating an outstanding achievement and a chronicle of the personal pursuit of an extraordinary young man.
