103. Mission Europe: Secret History Of The Women Of SOE
Forum

The women of the Special Operations Executive risked everything to resist Nazi occupation across Europe. Historian Kate Vigurs uncovers the remarkable but little-known stories of those who operated beyond France – in the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, and beyond. She explores too, the lives of Jewish agents recruited in Mandate Palestine for missions in Eastern Europe. From sabotage missions to daring escapes, these agents played a crucial role in the fight for freedom. Join Kate as she reveals the extraordinary courage of the women who helped to “set Europe ablaze.”
