terrible performance
Revisado: 06-14-20
The narrator sounded like an eight year old and did't even bother to lower her voice for a man speaking I have listened to over six hundred books and have never heard anything this bad. Most of the British narrators have lovely voices. This one was like finger nails on a blackboard.

Very enjoyable, but is this tale based on real events and people, or is it strictly fiction? I thought the author would tell us in an epilog.

The number one New York Times best-selling story about American Olympic triumph in Nazi Germany, the inspiration for the PBS documentary The Boys of '36, broadcast to coincide with the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 80th anniversary of the boys' gold medal race. Out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times - the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant.
