An Army Air Forces bomber crashes into the Pacific Ocean on a May afternoon in 1943, leaving behind a trail of debris, oil, gasoline and blood. Then, a face appears on the ocean surface. It is the plane’s bombardier, a young lieutenant, struggling to find a raft and pull himself afloat. This is how one of the most extraordinary odysseys of World War II begins. Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand tells the story of this lieutenant, Louis Zamperini. When he was a child, Zamperini was a cunning and incorrigible delinquent known for breaking into houses, brawling and fleeing his home to ride the rails. As a teen, Zamperini channeled his defiant energy into running and discovered a prodigious talent — one that would lead him to the Berlin Olympics. But when the Second World War began, this athlete became an airman, embarking on the journey that led to his doomed flight. Ahead of Zamperini were thousands of miles of ocean and sharks. He faced the constant threat of thirst, starvation and being captured by the enemy. Driven to his limits, Zamperini responded to desperation, suffering and brutality with ingenuity, hope, humor and rebellion. Read about Zamperini’s incredible journey in Unbroken, now available in large print.
