Description

From the depths of the Great Depression comes the unforgettable true story of nine working-class young men who came together to achieve the impossible. The Boys in the Boat follows the University of Washington rowing team as they defy expectations, overcome hardship, and earn a place at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, competing on the world stage against elite crews and the ominous backdrop of Nazi Germany.

At the heart of the story is Joe Rantz, a young man abandoned by his family who finds purpose, belonging, and dignity through rowing. Drawing on personal journals and firsthand memories, Daniel James Brown delivers a powerful, deeply human story about resilience, teamwork, and hope. A #1 New York Times bestseller, this is a moving portrait of an era and a triumph that still resonates today.
