On a Might afternoon in 1943, an Military Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving solely a sprig of particles and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean floor, a face appeared. It was that of a younger lieutenant, the aircraft’s bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So started probably the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World Conflict. The lieutenant’s identify was Louis Zamperini. In boyhood, he’d been a crafty and incorrigible delinquent, breaking into homes, brawling, and fleeing his residence to experience the rails. As a youngster, he had channeled his defiance into working, discovering a prodigious expertise that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics and close by of the four-minute mile. However when struggle had come, the athlete had grow to be an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown.

His destiny, whether or not triumph or tragedy, can be suspended on the fraying wire of his will. In her long-awaited guide, Laura Hillenbrand writes with the identical wealthy and vivid narrative voice she displayed in Seabiscuit. Telling an unforgettable story of a person’s journey into extremity, Unbroken is a testomony to the resilience of the human thoughts, physique, and spirit.
