    Great Sports Book

    Perhaps the best sports book I have read.... better than Chariots of Fire. Very inspiring as well. A tale of the rowing crew from the University of Washington who not only won almost all their intercollegiate races in the 1930's but went on to win the 1936 Olympics. The story focuses on one character who overcame immense odds starting when he was 10 years old, to his success in life. It is also about Depression era America. Read this book!!!

  • Top critical review

    It's a soft cover book but large size for easy reading

    The book is in fine condition and I it is a book that I have wanted to read so, I am pleased to have it at a reasonable price. I would have liked hard cover but the book is good for the price. The true story is fascinating to read. Five stars for the content and the physical book is what I expected.

  • Says it all

    I rate this book up there with "Killers of the Flower Moon", "Unbroken", "Seabiscuit" and a number of other GREAT books. It is a lot more than the story of a college rowing crew going to the 1936 Olympics. It is another illustration of why my parent's generation were the GREATEST. It also gives an "eyewitness" account of the Great Depression and the rise of Hitler in Germany. A must read.

  • tried to be there, now I know how they did that

    This novel helped give a perspective to my experience of rowing at the University of Oregon. In 1969-70 the freshman coach was first year grad student David Thompson, who graduated the previous year from U of W and the Husky crew. The book gave me a deeper insight into the genealogy of our rowing style, the historical perspective of our beautiful cedar Pocock racing shells, and our coaches relation other rowing programs, especially California's. The book is absolutely a must read for any American oarsperson and their friends or family. They can not help but benefit learning the history it contains. I doubt it will disappoint anyone else..

  • The Boys in the Boat is a novel that draws you into the life of these people.

    A terrific book. This author catches the reader's interest in the first chapter. This is a great look back to life of Americans during this time, and how they survived during the Depression and Dust Storms of the West.
