Product Description

This is the extraordinary true story of a plucky young woman and her dramatic escape from a German-run internment camp in Occupied France. Written in Rosemary's own words and completed by her daughter and son-in-law after her death, it includes photographs and documents from Rosie's incredible journey. Rosie's story moves from artistic circles in Avignon, through occupied Paris and the privations of prison camp, and across war-ravaged Europe. A tale of remarkable courage: not only of Rosie herself, but also of the many people who helped and harboured her at huge personal risk. Rosie's story sheds light on the little-known story of the thousands of British women trapped in Occupied France. Moving, enthralling, and inspirational, 'Rosie's War' is a book for all to enjoy.

Editorial Reviews

Review
One of Stylist's nine books you need to read this year. 'The extraordinary true story of Rosemary Say...An unsentimental account of survival.' --Stylist, 19th January 2011

Terrific, a most remarkable and wonderfully atypical wartime story. --Barry Norman

This story of her horrifying imprisonment and daring escape is both frank and satisfyingly unsentimental. --Reader's Digest, April 2011
