Thisadaptation of Unbroken introduces a new generation to one of history's most thrillingsurvival epics.On a May afternoon in 1943, an American military plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean anddisappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the oceansurface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane’s bombardier, who wasstruggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary sagas ofthe Second World War.The lieutenant’s name was Louis Zamperini. As a boy, he had been a clever delinquent, breaking intohouses, brawling, and stealing. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running,discovering a supreme talent that carried him to the Berlin Olympics. But when war came, theathlete became an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and adrift into the unknown.Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a sinking raft, thirst andstarvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance,Zamperini would respond to desperation with ingenuity, suffering with hope and humor, brutalitywith rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would hang on the fraying wire of his will.Featuring more than one hundred photographs plus an exclusive interview with Zamperini, thisbreathtaking odyssey—also captured on film by director Angelina Jolie—is a testament to thestrength of the human spirit and the ability to endure against the unlikeliest of odds.1
