Undefeated does not blur the line between fact and fiction. Actual historical events drive the narrative here, proving that truth really is stranger than fiction while rendering a story that is both delightful and instructional., In Undefeated, Jim Noles tells a story of young men, who form a unique bond in a season of athletic battles, and then engages in a vicious historic war. By turns, heartwarming, heartbreaking, and ultimately triumphant. A wonderful read., A winning journey by a remarkable group of cadets. Thanks to Jim Noles for shinning a light on a season and a team too few sports fans know about, Undefeated offers a remarkable view of the final year of America's Second World War - from basketball courts to foxholes of Western Europe to the skies of the Pacific., The writing combines military and sports history with winning prose and detailed accounts of the battles these young officers fought, risking much more than they ever did on the basketball court. The volume is a fitting tribute to the achievements of these young men., A winning Journey by a remarkable group of cadets. Thanks to Jim Noles for shinning a light on a season and a team too few sports fans know about, In Undefeated , Jim Noles tells a story of young men, who form a unique bond in a season of athletic battles, and then engages in a vicious historic war. By turns, heartwarming, heartbreaking, and ltimately triumphant. A wonderful read., Insightful and moving, Undefeated is a must-read that goes far beyond basketball to show how real heroes touch so many people's lives., In Undefeated , Jim Noles tells a story of young men, who form a unique bond in a season of athletic battles, and then engages in a vicious historic war. By turns, heartwarming, heartbreaking, and ultimately triumphant. A wonderful read., Jim Noles has produced a provocative, arresting, put-you-there account pf a forgotten 1940's Army basketball team that we now realize shouldn't be forgotten. Deeply researched, written with flair and emotion, Noles has achieved something rare: He'll make you care, deeply, about a team you've never heard of- and one you'll never forget., This book had me rooting for the young men on the court while also fearing for their lives in battle, a narrative where there are no television time-outs but continuous action, an expertly researched and written interplay between the innocence of college basketball and the corruption of war. If you want the full-range of unscripted drama that only sports and war delivers, for better or for worse, Undefeated is the book for you., If James Naismith, Herodotus, and Patton were in charge of the reading list for their book club, Undefeated by Jim Noles would be at the top of their list. Undefeated, a pure delight for basketball fans and history buffs, nails Aristotle's definition of drama--action that is whole, complete, and of a certain magnitude. Military heroics and athletic success serve as the perfect metaphor for life, but Undefeated intertwines the real life accounts of the student-athlete-soldier in the theater of war and basketball--think Patton meets Hoosiers. This is not merely metaph∨ this is the harsh reality of World War II. This book should be required reading for all college students who bemoan the challenges of juggling academics with life outside of the classroom. The young men in Undefeated are not preoccupied with getting a job after college, being saddled with debt, and possibly having to move home with mom and dad after graduation. No, what awaits the young men in Undefeated after their glory on the court and brilliance in the classroom is literally a matter of life or death. This book had me rooting for the young men on the court while also fearing for their lives in battle, a narrative where there are no television timeouts but continuous action, an expertly researched and written interplay between the innocence of college basketball and the corruption of war. If you want the full-range of unscripted drama that only sports and war delivers, for better or for worse, Undefeated is the book for you.
