Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0593512308
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
Now a Major Motion Picture Directed by George Clooney The #1 New York Times bestselling true story about the American rowing triumph of the 1936 Olympics in Berlin—from the author of Facing the Mountain For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant. It was an unlikely quest from the start. 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. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find 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 has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.

Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1465361146
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 107
Book Description
What is truth? Are facts necessary for something to be called true? Is it enough that the majority believes in something for that thing to be considered truth? The book proposes the mathematics of life as the ultimate truth, the truth which everything must be based on. As written in the beginning of the book, To understand the mathematics of life, one must not always be obedient. Galileo was not obedient even after torture. He knew the mathematics of the stars and of our world. If he and the other great scientists obeyed religion, where would we be today? This statement is enough to give readers an inkling of the radical ideas that await them in The Mathematics of Life. Each chapter explores a wide range of subjects like life, love, sex, science, religion and even politics. Ultimately, the principles in the book will challenge readers to look beyond the norm and let go of any specious beliefs that are impeding their growth and potentials. The Mathematics of Life is a book that will be hard to put down. The pages are laden with revolutionary ideas and intriguing experiences that will astound, inspire and entertain.
