Wild meets The Boys in the Boat in Ginny Gilder's Course Correction (Beacon Press), a memoir about the quest for Olympic gold and the triumph of love over fear. Forty years ago, when a young Gilder stood on the edge of Boston's Charles River and first saw a rowing shell in motion, it was love at first sight.
