Unbroken a World War II story of survival, resilience, and redemption Cover Image Large Print Book

Unbroken [large print] a World War II story of survival, resilience, and redemption / Laura Hillenbrand.

Hillenbrand, Laura. (Author).

Summary:

On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared--Lt. Louis Zamperini. Captured by the Japanese and driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor.
