Olga is an Inspiration
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is one of my four all time favorite books. It's set in a fascinating time period (the years leading up to WWII) and tells the story of an incredibly couragous woman, Olga Benario. The writing is straight forward with few flourishes but the book includes so many fascinating details of this woman's life that you can't help feeling inspired by her strenght of her character. I suppose I could say something about how great it is to find a book like this when women are so often left out of history books, but it certainly wasn't written as an attempt at political correctness. Olga's story simply had to be told because she was just such an amazing person.
