Boy were you guys right-This book by Laura Hillenbrand, remember SEABISCUT?, was fantastic.
What an ordeal and what a great story. We follow the career of an Olympic runner, Louie Zamperini from high school thru his captivity as a prisoner of war in Japan.
How these cruel b******s were not able to break this man amazed me. What a will. What inner strength!
The whole ordeal angered me no end. What a price our soldiers, sailors, and airmen paid after being captured by an enemy who totally disregarded the rules of War and the Geneva Convention.
That Louie survives the prisons, and the horrors of flashbacks and the demons he encountered in alcohol makes for a powerful story. It
Hillenbrand put me through the wringer, but I am glad I listened to your recommendations and picked up this remarkable tale.
