A review by jenn_reads_everything
The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown

4.0

Story - 5 ; writing - 3.7

I would have enjoyed the book more if he highlighted info about the background of the other boys and their relationships consistently throughout.

I love a good story about an underdog and recommend for this reason. The writing became a bit monotonous with quotes from journalists and Coach Ulbrickson up to the same old thing.
