Growing up, she had heard stories her mother and father had told, but they were remembrances only, told to ears too young to comprehend a war that was still being chronicled.Reading the letters as an adult, her parents came alive as young newlyweds; curious, adventuresome, sometimes naive, and deeply in love. Her father became the soldier and spy that he was. Their stories now had dimension with color, new meaning and new emotion as the world was hurled into WWII.view less
