The boys in the boat

nine Americans and their epic quest for gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics

Explores the history of the American eight-man rowing team that went to the Berlin Olympics in 1936--a group of west coast boys with little to no experience in rowing--discussing the great odds they faced in becoming chosen to represent their country over east coast teams, and the personal challenges each one of them faced during the Great Depression.
