So far our suggestion is The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown. Make your other suggestions here!

I suggested this one. I will also add that there is a local angle to this ine, as the college rowing championships leading up to the Olympics were held in Poghkeepsie on the Hudson River. The finish line was located where the current Marist Boathouse lies.
