Description
This audiobook is the first foreign biography documenting the extraordinary rise, fall, and rehabilitation of a man who was declared the 'greatest runner of all time.' It is also a story from the golden age of sports, set against the backdrop of the paranoid horrors of the Cold War. From the London Olympics in 1948 to Czech prison camps, this is a harrowing yet uplifting story of survival. While Zátopek rose to the peak of his global fame, his former coach was arrested and tortured. Their divergent paths reveal how unpredictable fame can be, only to cross again at a time when Zátopek's world crumbled. All that remained for both men was to endure and stay strong.
