Remando como un solo hombre (Otras Latitudes)

This is a story of perseverance, individual improvement and team spirit. With origins in the North American Depression and a few years after World War II, Daniel James Brown narrates the epic of the team of eight rowers and their coxswain from the University of Washington, and their epic mission to win the gold medal in 1936 at the Games of Hitler's Berlin. The team, which surprised the world and transformed this sport, attracted the attention of millions of people. It was an improbable mission from the beginning. With a team made up of sons of loggers, shipyard workers and farmers, the University of Washington team did not expect to be able to defeat the elite teams from the East Coast and Great Britain. However, he surprised the world by defeating Adolf Hitler's German rowing team.
