520    In 1936, against a backdrop of swastikas flying and storm 
       troopers looming, an African American son of sharecroppers
       set three world records and won an unprecedented four gold
       medals, single-handedly crushing Hitler's myth of Aryan 
       supremacy. The story of Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympic 
       Games is that of a high-profile athlete giving a 
       performance that transcends sports. But it is also the 
       intimate and complex tale of the courage of one remarkable
       man.Drawing on unprecedented access to the Owens family, 
       previously unpublished interviews, and exhaustive archival
       research, Jeremy Schaap transports us to Nazi Germany to 
       weave this dramatic tale. From the start, American 
       participation in the games was controversial. A boycott, 
       based on reports of Nazi hostility to Jews, was afoot, but
       it was thwarted by the president of the American Olympic 
       Committee. At the games themselves the plots and intrigues
       continued: Owens was befriended by a German rival, broad 
       jumper Luz Long, who helped Owens win the gold medal at 
       his own expense. Two Jewish sprinters were, at the last 
       moment, denied the chance to compete for the United States
       out of misguided politeness to the Nazi hosts. And a myth 
       was born that Hitler himself had snubbed Owens.Like Neal 
       Bascomb's The Perfect Mile and David Margolick's Beyond 
       Glory, Triumph captures this momentous episode in sports, 
       and world, history in a nuanced yet page-turning narrative
       full of drama, suspense, and color.
