Laura Hillenbrand, the bestselling author of Seabiscuit, recently wrote Unbroken, the inspiring true story of a man who lived through a series of catastrophes almost too incredible to be believed. Hillenbrand unfurls the story of Louie Zamperini--a juvenile delinquent-turned-Olympic runner-turned-Army hero. During a routine search mission over the Pacific, Louie’s plane crashed into the ocean, and what happened to him over the next three years is a story that will keep you glued to the pages, eagerly awaiting the next turn in the story and fearing it at the same time. You’ll want to share this book with everyone you know.

Buy it on Amazon. It was the November 2010 Book of The Month

+1 start with the first and work your way through them.

Andy McNab's Nick Stone series of 13 books is a good read and are written by someone who actually lived the life he now fictionalizes about.
His nonfiction book Bravo Two Zero is a great read as well.
