HEROINES OF SOE: BRITAINS SECRET WOMEN IN FRANCE (PB)

Britain’s war in the shadows of male spies and subterfuge in the heart of occupied France is a story well known, but what of the women who also risked their lives for Britain and the liberation of France? This book is an extraordinary account of all forty SOE F women agents. Many of them died bravely and painfully, and often those who survived never told their stories, yet their secret missions of intelligence-gathering and sabotage undoubtedly helped the Resistance to drive out their occupiers and free France.
