Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In 1947, the French government planted 1,147 stone markers along the route that General George S. Patton's US Third Army took from the Normandy beaches to the relief of Bastogne in the Belgian Ardennes. Each borne carries a carved flame rising from Atlantic waves, forty-eight stars for the for…ty-eight states of 1944, and the letter A for the army that fought its way across France in the summer and autumn and winter of that year. They stand one every kilometre, from Utah Beach to the Mardasson Memorial, the longest continuous war memorial on the European continent. The route is called the Voie de la Liberte, the Liberty Road.Nobody has written a walking guide to it. There are books about Patton. There are books about D-Day. There are campaign histories covering every phase of the fighting from the beaches to the Bulge. But there is no book that treats these 1,147 stones as what they plainly are: a walkable route, marked at every kilometre, connecting one end of the liberation of western Europe to the other, waiting for someone to follow it on foot and write down what is there.David G. Oldham, a British writer living in France and a Guardian of the British Normandy Memorial at Ver-sur-Mer, follows the bornes east from Borne 0 outside the town hall at Sainte-Mere-Eglise, where the 82nd Airborne dropped on a lit square on the night before D-Day, to Borne 1147 at the Mardasson Memorial above Bastogne, where the 101st Airborne held a freezing crossroads town and answered the German surrender demand with a single word.Every chapter follows the same pattern. First, what happened on the ground in 1944: the men, the units, the battles, the cost. Then, what is there to see today: the bornes, the memorials, the cemeteries, the museums, the villages that have gone back to being villages. Then, the practical information the modern walker needs: where to sleep, where to eat, how far to walk, which season to come, and what to read before setting out.Along the way, the book covers ground that most popular histories pass over. The colonel who climbed the bell tower of Chartres Cathedral under fire to confirm the Germans were not using it as an observation post, saved the cathedral from destruction, and was killed the same afternoon. The African American truck drivers of the Red Ball Express who kept the Third Army supplied across the width of France, driving through the night without headlights, in a segregated army that would trust them with a steering wheel but not a rifle. The Polish soldiers of the 1st Armoured Division who held a hilltop above the Falaise Pocket for three days while two German armies tried to climb over them, and whose cemetery between Caen and Falaise is one of the quietest and most moving places on the route. The schoolroom in Reims, still kept as it was, where the German unconditional surrender was signed at 2:41 in the morning on 7 May 1945. The three-month siege of Metz, the hardest and costliest fight of the whole campaign, that the legend of the dash across France prefers not to remember. And the moment at Verdun, two thirds of the way along the route, where the Liberty Road meets its own ancestor: the Voie sacree, the Sacred Way, the supply road of the 1916 battle, which had been marked with its own kilometre stones, each topped with a soldier's helmet. The two sets of bornes stand together on the same road, the helmet and the flame, and the walker who reaches them will understand why this book was written.The book is honest about Patton: brilliant in pursuit, indefensible in a hospital tent, and the reader is not asked to choose. It is honest about the road: built backwards, numbered from a disputed zero, marked by stones that are mostly no longer the originals. And it is honest about its own limits: the Normandy section is walked and field-researched by the author; Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. En 1943, une jeune Francaise memorisa l'emplacement de tous les sites de lancement de fusees V-2 en Allemagne. Elle avait vingt-quatre ans. Les informations qu'elle gardait dans sa tete sauverent la vie de milliers d'Allies. Apres la guerre, presque personne ne connaissait son nom.Elle n'etait… pas la seule. Dans toute la France occupee, les femmes devinrent le pilier de la Resistance, non pas en tant que figurantes, mais en tant qu'espionnes, saboteuses, operatrices radio et chefs de reseaux de renseignement entiers. Elles transportaient des messages codes dans la doublure de leurs manteaux, geraient des hopitaux clandestins dans des grottes et des granges, hebergeaient des aviateurs allies dans leurs greniers et transmettaient des secrets depuis des chambres mansardees exigues tandis que des camions de detection allemands tournaient en rond en contrebas. L'esperance de vie moyenne d'une operatrice radio dans la France occupee etait de six mois. Elles se portaient neanmoins volontaires.The Women of the French Resistance raconte leur histoire, depuis la chute de la France en 1940 jusqu'a la liberation, la deportation et les decennies de silence qui ont suivi.Vous rencontrerez: Marie-Madeleine Fourcade, qui commandait le plus grand reseau de renseignement en France - trois mille agents, sous les ordres d'une femme que la Gestapo appelait le herisson Jeannie Rousseau, l'interprete qui a vole les secrets du programme V-2 d'Hitler a des officiers allemands qui ne se doutaient de rienNoor Inayat Khan, l'agent indo-britannique qui a opere seule comme unique liaison radio a Paris pendant quatre mois, et dont les derniers mots avant son execution a Dachau ont ete Liberte Adelaide Hautval, la psychiatre qui a refuse de participer aux experiences medicales nazies a Auschwitz, declarant a un medecin SS: Dans ce camp, beaucoup de gens sont differents de moi. Vous, par exemple. Les sept infirmieres de la Grotte de la Luire, qui sont restees aupres de leurs blesses dans une grotte des montagnes du Vercors alors que les soldats allemands se rapprochaientLeur courage a pris toutes les formes: une fermiere detournant la nourriture de sa propre famille pour nourrir les combattants du Maquis. Une religieuse cachant des blesses pendant que les soldats allemands fouillaient son couvent. Une institutrice memorisant une carte de 17 metres representant les emplacements des canons ennemis le long de la cote normande. Une mere de trois enfants transportant un emetteur radio a travers Paris dans un landau.Apres la guerre, la France les a oubliees. Les hommes ont recu des medailles et des pensions. On a dit aux femmes de rentrer chez elles. Leurs dossiers ont ete classes secrets. Leurs noms ont disparu des histoires officielles. Il a fallu des decennies et le travail patient des survivantes qui ont finalement brise leur silence pour que la verite eclate au grand jour.Ce livre retablit cette verite.Dans ces pages: Les reseaux d'espionnage qui ont change le cours de la guerre, et les femmes qui les dirigeaientLes hopitaux clandestins dans des grottes, des granges et des couvents ou les femmes operaient a la lueur des bougiesLes voyages eprouvants vers Ravensbrueck et Auschwitz, et la resistance qui s'est poursuivie a l'interieur des campsLes tontes: l'humiliation publique des femmes apres la liberation et l'amere injustice qu'elle representaitComment la reconnaissance est finalement arrivee, avec soixante-dix ans de retard pour la plupartParfait pour les lecteurs de Une femme sans importance, La guerre secrete de Madame Fo Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In 1943, a young Frenchwoman memorised the locations of every V-2 rocket site in Germany. She was twenty-four years old. The intelligence she carried in her head saved thousands of Allied lives. After the war, almost nobody knew her name.She was not alone. Across occupied France, women became…the backbone of the Resistance, not as supporting players, but as spies, saboteurs, wireless operators, and leaders of entire intelligence networks. They carried coded messages in the linings of their coats, ran underground hospitals in caves and barns, sheltered Allied airmen in their attics, and transmitted secrets from cramped attic rooms while German detection vans circled below. The average life expectancy of a female wireless operator in occupied France was six months. They volunteered anyway.The Women of the French Resistance tells their stories, from the fall of France in 1940 to liberation, deportation, and the decades of silence that followed.You will meet: Marie-Madeleine Fourcade, who commanded the largest intelligence network in France, three thousand agents, answering to a woman the Gestapo called "the hedgehog"Jeannie Rousseau, the interpreter who stole the secrets of Hitler's V-2 programme from German officers who never suspected herNoor Inayat Khan, the British-Indian agent who operated alone as the sole wireless link in Paris for four months, and whose last word before her execution at Dachau was LiberteAdelaide Hautval, the psychiatrist who refused to participate in Nazi medical experiments at Auschwitz, telling an SS doctor: "In this camp, many people are different from me. You, for example"The seven nurses of the Grotte de la Luire, who stayed with their wounded in a cave in the Vercors mountains as German soldiers closed inTheir courage took every form: a farmer's wife diverting food from her own family to feed Maquis fighters. A nun hiding wounded men while German soldiers searched her convent. A schoolteacher memorising a fifty-five-foot map of enemy gun emplacements along the Normandy coast. A mother of three carrying a wireless transmitter across Paris in a pram.After the war, France forgot them. Men received medals and pensions. Women were told to go home. Their files were classified. Their names disappeared from official histories. It took decades, and the patient work of survivors who finally broke their silence, for the truth to emerge.This book restores that truth.Inside these pages: The espionage networks that changed the course of the war - and the women who ran themUnderground hospitals in caves, barns, and convents where women operated by candlelightThe harrowing journeys to Ravensbrueck and Auschwitz - and the resistance that continued inside the campsThe tontes: the public shaming of women after liberation, and the bitter injustice it representedHow recognition finally came - seventy years too late for mostPerfect for readers of A Woman of No Importance, Madame Fourcade's Secret War, Code Name Helene, The Nightingale, and Sisters in the Resistance.Written in vivid narrative prose and grounded in the historical record, this book draws on memoirs, declassified files, trial transcripts, and the testimonies of the women themselves. It is history that reads like a thriller - because the truth was more extraordinary than any fiction.They carried no rifles. They wore no uniforms. And they changed the course of the war.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The untold story of the women who defied the Nazis, carried secrets across enemy lines, and risked everything for freedom.When France fell in 1940, life under Nazi occupation was marked by fear, hunger, and control. Yet from quiet villages to bustling cities, ordinary women stepped forward to…resist. They became couriers, nurses, spies, saboteurs, and leaders. Their bravery shaped the fight for liberation, though for decades their contributions were overshadowed or forgotten.The Women of the French Resistance: Courage, Espionage, and Defiance in Nazi-Occupied France uncovers the extraordinary lives of these women - schoolteachers, mothers, students, nuns, nurses, and secret agents - who found themselves at the heart of the struggle. From Paris safe houses to mountain hideouts, from underground hospitals to the horror of deportation, their stories reveal how courage takes many forms.Inside you'll discover: Espionage and Intrigue: How women couriers carried messages, coded intelligence, and weapons under the eyes of German patrols.Silent Acts of Defiance: From hiding Allied airmen to passing banned newspapers, resistance began with small acts of bravery.Nurses and Healers: Women who ran underground hospitals in barns and convents, saving countless fighters and airmen.Captured and Deported: Harrowing accounts of women sent to Ravensbrueck and Auschwitz - and how survival became another form of resistance.Legacy and Rediscovery: How their courage was silenced after the war, and how history is now restoring their rightful place.Written in vivid, accessible prose, this book brings to life both famous figures like Lucie Aubrac and Violette Szabo, as well as the countless unnamed women whose sacrifices sustained the Resistance. It is both a gripping narrative of espionage and defiance, and a moving tribute to ordinary women who became extraordinary heroines.Perfect for Readers Who EnjoyWorld War II history and resistance memoirsWomen's history and forgotten heroinesTrue stories of espionage, courage, and survivalBooks such as Code Name Helene, A Woman of No Importance, Madame Fourcade's Secret War, and The NightingaleWhy Read This Book?If you've ever wondered how ordinary women found the strength to confront tyranny, this book will inspire, move, and stay with you. It is both history and human story - a testament to resilience, sacrifice, and the enduring fight for freedom.Step into occupied France. Walk in their footsteps.
