I Was A Spy!

Bag om I Was A Spy!

""I Was A Spy!"" is a gripping memoir by Marthe McKenna, a brave and resourceful woman who served as a spy for the Allies during World War I. Born in Belgium, McKenna was a nurse who became involved in the resistance movement after her country was invaded by Germany. She used her skills and intelligence to gather information and relay it to the British intelligence agency MI6, risking her life every time she went out on a mission. McKenna's story is one of courage, determination, and sacrifice, as she faced danger, betrayal, and imprisonment in her quest to help defeat the enemy. This book is a fascinating account of a little-known aspect of the Great War, and a testament to the heroism of ordinary people who rose to the challenge in extraordinary times.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
