Jessica ’s Reviews > Women in Intelligence: The Hidden History of Two World Wars > Status Update

It's so amazing to think about all the hidden stories of people who have actually caused change. 'History is told by the winners' is so true because all the men and male agencies get all the credit but you don't actually hear or think about women being a massive part of M11. For example, La Dame Blanche made up 70% of the work for the allied M11 but I never knew they even existed. I find it fascinating tbhh

'The feeling of danger hanging over our heads night and day did not dishearten us, far from it, it seemed that the greater danger became, the more enchanting was our work' - Therese de Radigues (i love reading about divas)

Does anyone else read non-fiction so slowly???
