Summary

Imagine fighting off shark attacks, starvation, enemy attacks, and dehydration only to suffer years of captivity in a Japanese internment camp. That is just part of Louis Zamperini's incredible journey.
As a boy, he was energetic and mischievous. The future Olympic hopeful would focus his energy and eventually capture international attention, even meet Hitler. But WWII changed Zamperini's plotted course with incredible speed.
In 1942, Zamperini was a second lieutenant in the United States Army Air Force. His aircraft plummeted into the Pacific Ocean, where he clung to life for 47 days. Immediately captured by Japanese forces once he found land, Zamperini endured cruel captivity until the end of the war in 1945.
From the author who brought you Seabiscuit: An American Legend, is the greatly anticipated biography of Louis Zamperini. Author Laura Hillenbrand superbly captures Zamperini's unique story of how a rowdy boy from New York would become an international voice for courage, survival, and forgiveness.
