Description
 
     Near the end of World War II, thirty-six conscientious objectors volunteered to be systematically starved for renowned scientist Ancel Keys's study at the University of Minnesota in the basement of Memorial Stadium.  Aimed to benefit relief efforts in war-ravaged Europe and Asia, the study sought the best way to rehabilitate starving citizens.  Tucker captures a lost moment in American history--a time when staunch idealism and a deep willingness to sacrifice trumped even basic human needs.
