Accolades for the adult edition of The Boys in the Boat : #1 New York Times bestseller 2014 ABA Adult Nonfiction Book of the Year 2014 Washington State Book Award Finalist "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." - The 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, Praise for The Boys in the Boat (Young Readers Adaptation): "The word teamwork , which can sound humdrum to kids in coaches' droning lectures, doesn't adequately describe the connection shared by the men in that boat in 1936. Illustrated with vintage photos, this moving book offers young people a vivid sense of that shared experience. A Depression-era story with timeless appeal." -- Booklist , starred review Accolades for the adult edition of The Boys in the Boat : - #1 New York Times bestseller - 2014 ABA Adult Nonfiction Book of the Year - 2014 Washington State Book Award "A suspenseful tale of triumph." -- USA Today "Evocative, cinematic prose." -- Publishers Weekly "This is Chariots of Fire with oars." --David Laskin, author of The Children's Blizzard "A great and inspiring true story." --Nathaniel Philbrick, author of Mayflower "A thrilling, heart-thumping tale." --Timothy Egan, author of The Worst Hard Time "A robust, emotional snapshot of an era." --James Bradley, author of Flags of Our Fathers

Synopsis
The #1 New York Times bestseller about the Greatest Generation freshly adapted for the next generation. For readers of Unbroken , out of the depths of the Great Depression comes the astonishing tale of nine working-class boys from the American West who at the 1936 Olympics showed the world what true grit really meant. With rowers who were the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington's eight-oar crew was never expected to defeat the elite East Coast teams, yet they did, going on to shock the world by challenging the German boat rowing for Adolf Hitler. At the center of the tale is Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, whose personal quest captures the spirit of his generation--the generation that would prove in the coming years that the Nazis could not prevail over American determination and optimism. This deeply emotional yet easily accessible young readers adaptation of the award-winning #1 New York Times bestseller features never-before-seen photographs, highly visual back matter, and an exclusive new introduction., Soon to be a major motion picture directed by George Clooney The #1 New York Times bestseller freshly adapted for the next generation.

- b***r (970)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI bought the Dark Angel (Season 2) DVD set from this seller. The package arrived within a week. Unfortunately, it was a different UPC barcode from the one they had listed. There are quite a few versions of this DVD set, and I needed the one listed to match my Season 1 DVD set. I printed a return shipping label at no cost to me. Five days after I dropped it off at the Post Office, I received a credit on my card. Great Service!!! I would definitely buy from this seller again!!!
