I'm reading about Josephine Baker's resistance work doing WWII #AgentJosephine Just started, but it's a page turner. Helps me to read about past resisters of all stripes. History keeps us company too.

Agent Josephine is based on factual data concerning her espionage cohorts, and against the background of war, hatred, racial and religious bias. It stresses the contrast between the underprivileged child and the adult hero she would become --- largely because of her strong character and true grit.

Josephine Baker had a remarkable life! I highly recommend this book! 🌹 #JosephineBaker #Book #WorldWar2 #Resistance #Spy #DamienLewis #Biography #GiftIdeas #AgentJosephine
