Madame Fourcade's Secret War by Lynne Olson

A very interesting account of the woman who ran one of the largest French resistance spy organizations in WWII. Though dealing with marked chauvinism, she overcame all odds and was highly valued and a very effective leader, though a great personal price, mental physical, and family. A book that has a cast of hundreds but still is very exciting and captivating. It was a terrible time but a time of heroism in the face of cruelty and betrayal.
