在看到尾声的夜晚是哭着入睡的,醒来发现做梦的时候也在哭。
评分A delicious meal mixed of 20th century history, American north west culture, personal and collective triumph, a love story, social and economical struggles of that era, a comprehensive study of rowing as a sport and most important of all, a collection of interesting and admirable characters.
评分能看得进去奥运赛艇了。
评分对划艇运动一点不懂,也不大感冒,开始部分讲美国大萧条部分还比较吸引人,后面大学里的部分听得有点闷,而且提不起兴趣,放弃了。
评分跟Joe的经历相比,这个世界上没有难事。愿我们都有一颗勇敢的心。多么期待自己可以跟这样一群人一起拼搏奋斗,建立永久的友情
ABOUT AUTHOR
I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and attended Diablo Valley College, the University of California at Berkeley, and UCLA. I taught writing at San Jose State University and Stanford before becoming a technical writer and editor. I now write narrative nonfiction books full time. My primary interest as a writer is in bringing compelling historical events to life as vividly and accurately as I can.
I live in the country outside of Seattle, Washington with my wife, two daughters, and an assortment of cats, dogs, chickens, and honeybees. When I am not writing, I am likely to be birding, gardening, fly fishing, reading American history, or chasing bears away from the bee hives.

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.

评分穿过激流的命运 赛艇是一项“贵族运动”,堪比高尔夫球。在今日之中国,这一“很高雅”的运动方式,也因装备和场地的高要求,普通百姓还只有“望而却步”的份。所以,在二十世纪初,“玩”赛艇的绝对是非富即贵。比如,当时统领美国赛艇圈的,只有哈佛、耶鲁等贵族名校的赛艇队...
