Description
Publisher's Description of Nancy Wake: Fearless Spy of World War II (Women Warriors of World War II)
In the early 1940s,
during World War II, Germany’s Nazi regime expanded into neighboring
European countries. In France, groups of anti-Nazi citizens, known as
the French Resistance, fought to stop Germany’s reign of terror. A brave
woman named Nancy Wake became one of the movement’s greatest assets as a
spy. In her role, Wake often transported Jews to safe locations and
rode her bicycle through German checkpoints to deliver messages and
supplies. For her ability to avoid capture, the enemy nicknamed her the
“White Mouse.” In this full-color graphic novel, discover more about
this fearless woman who faced the enemies of World War II.
