The way Liza Mundy writes history makes it so easy to read and enjoy. This book tells how the women from WWII who had been spies and did other undercover work were able to help create the CIA and make it into what it is today. It's the story of hardships, sisterhood, and the ability to keep going even when everything looks bleak. The women in this book never gave up, there were hard times, but they kept going and made it possible for the women of today to have all the opportunities that we do. This book is a reminder to continue on, continue to be better, and never ever give up.
