Nancy Wake Part 2

March 08, 2021 • Ryan Powers

Thanks for joining us for the second and final part of the Nancy Wake story. When we left off in part one, Wake had traveled an unlikely path to becoming a wealthy socialite in France and an even unlikelier path as a leader in the French and British resistance efforts in World War II.

Now, as the stakes increase, Wake will have to make difficult choices that will put her in even greater danger but will see her legend grow and her contributions to the Allied war effort become legendary.

So sit back and enjoy the conclusion of today’s episode, World War II spy, Nancy Wake.
