May is a non-fiction month for the Arroyo Book Club and the non-fiction title we will be reading is Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. This book takes us into one man’s WWII experience. The catalog description of the book says:
In 1943, while World War II raged on in the Pacific Theater, Lieutenant Louis Zamperini was the only survivor of a deadly plane crash in the middle of the ocean. Zamperini had a troubled youth, yet honed his athletic skills and made it all the way to the 1934 Olympics in Berlin. However, what lay before him was a physical gauntlet unlike anything he had encountered before: thousands of miles of open ocean, a small raft, and no food or water.
