London: Macmillan 2013. 8vo. [xii], 404 pp. a fine first edition of this extraordinary story. A flavour of the book, precied from the blurb. An extraordinary journey of eight working-class boys in 1930s America striving for the promise of glory at the heart of Hitler's Berlin at the 1936 Olympics. Stroke by stroke, a remarkable young man strives to regain his shattered self-regard, to dare again to trust in others. The backdrop of the Great Depression, The Boys in the Boat is narrative non-fiction of the first order; a personal story full of lyricism and unexpected beauty that rises above the grand sweep of history, and captures instead the purest essence of what it means to be alive. Now made into a film. 9780230763845 . Fine. Hardcover. 1st UK Edition. 2013.
