Abstract: Abstract This book chronicles the famous win by the US “eight rowing” boat in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, a foot or so ahead of the German boat and another foot ahead of the Italian, after having completed a distance of 2000 meters, with Hitler himself in the stands. It seems to be a matter of six key issues: focus on “me” and on the team; a shared culture, the coach’s instrumental importance; the ability to sustain tough periods; to stand up for each other; and confidence in a strong social network of support.
