Violette Szabo: The Life that I Have (Carve Her Name With Pride) by Susan Ottaway
The book and film Carve Her Name With Pride have moved millions of men and women with their tale of incredible bravery and fortitude. The heroine Violette Szabo was an attractive young mother who volunteered for the Special Operations Executive, and after arduous training, parachuted into Nazi-occupied France. Captured dramatically by the Germans she was tortured and cruelly shot in Ravensbruck Concentration Camp, aged a mere 23 years old. Inevitably fact and fiction have become confused in the past, but this well researched biography reveals the truth behind this remarkable story.
Susan Ottaway is the author of a number of successful books including Dambuster - The Life of Guy Gibson VC and She Who Dared, the dramatic story of an underground intelligence operator in Northern Ireland. She lives near Andover, Hampshire.
