MUST READ: The Boys in the Boat


The emotional heart of the story lies with one rower, Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not for glory, but to regain his shattered self-regard and to find a place he can call home.

They remind the country of what can be done when everyone quite literally pulls together—a perfect melding of commitment, determination, and optimism.
