Paperback

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. Author Daniel James Brown has created a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest in this unforgetable portrait of an era.
