SAVE TIME & UNDERSTAND MORE! WARNING: This is not the actual book Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. Do not buy this summary & anaylsis if you are looking for a full copy of this thrilling book, which can be found back on the Amazon search page. Instead, we have already read Unbroken and pulled out the key events and some of the best ideas, insights and take-away points from this chilling World War II survivor story to give you a comprehensive chapter-by-chapter summary and analysis. In doing so, unfortunately we do not have the space to include all of the many important ideas and anecdotes found in Unbroken. To get it all, you need to order the full book. Packaged together in an engaging and easily digestible format, this concise summary works best as an unofficial study guide or companion to read alongside the book. UNBROKEN: A WORLD WAR II STORY OF SURVIVAL, RESILIENCE AND REDEMPTION -- LAURA HILLENBRAND Laura Hillenbrand first gained national prominence for her story on Seabiscuit, that small horse that became a symbol of hope to Americans during the Depression. Her book became an Oscar-nominated film. In Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption, Hillenbrand delivers another beacon of inspiration. In this summary and analysis, you will read about: * Survival: The book recounts the story of Louie Zamperini, a World War II airman survivor who goes through harrowing combat missions (594 bullet and cannon holes), a crash and, ultimately, being lost at sea with nothing but a raft between him and a painful death at the hands of the enemy or even the jaws of a shark. * Resilience: The eruption of the war interrupts Louie's Olympic run. This can either destroy or strengthen a man. Louie keeps both feet steady beneath him and keeps running, so to speak, as he faces World War II battles, trauma (his and that of his fellow soldiers), imprisonment in deplorable cells, and torture at the hands of a sadist Japanese solider. * Redemption: Suffering from what is now known as PTSD, Louie becomes an alcoholic and his wife even catches him shaking their infant daughter. But husband and wife find direction in God. Through Billy Graham's sermons, the former Olympian becomes a Christian motivational speaker himself, and goes to Japan to forgive his former tormentors. FROM START-TO-FINISH IN JUST 20 MINUTES! Here's your chapter-by-chapter guide to Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption that you can start and finish right now!… (altro)
