The Secret History of the Women of SOEHaving previously visited Lincoln in 2021 to talk about her book on the women SOE operatives in WW2 France, historian Kate Vigurs returns with her book Mission Europe, the remarkable history of the women who worked for Special Operations Executive across the whole of occupied Europe.
In this gripping account, Kate tells the stories of the women who worked across Europe, from the Netherlands to Belgium and Poland to Denmark. She explores too the lives of Jewish agents recruited in Mandate Palestine for missions in Eastern Europe. Mission Europe examines why women were recruited, analysing their successes and contributions - and celebrates the ordinary women who did extraordinary things.
Kate will be giving a talk for us on the main features of the book Mission Europe, with the opportunity to purchase copies and have them signed at the event.
