A Woman of No Importance: the untold story of the American Spy who helped win World War II by Sonia Purnell.  This biography introduces Virginia Hall the little known American spy who led many daring missions in France helping the resistance sabotage the Nazis during their occupation of France. Read about her missions and how she was never captured in spite of having a heavy wooden prosthetic leg.  Even with all her accomplishments very few knew the extent of Virginia's work until long after her death in 1982.  Purnell's meticulous research brings Virginia's story to life.  Recommended for anyone who enjoys historical works and espionage.
