Heroines of World War II

This book draws on first-hand accounts and dozens of face-to-face interviews in exploring the heroism and motives of women at war. The author records the experiences of many valiant women including Joanna Stavridi, Claire Phillips, nurse Margot Turner - who survived a Japanese POW camp - and Diana Rowden who served as an SOE agent in Nazi-occupied France and was executed at Natzweiler.
