520 "The Girls Who Stepped Out of Line takes you inside the
lives and experiences of 15 unknown women heroes from the
Greatest Generation, the women who served, fought,
struggled, and made things happen during WWII-in and out
of uniform, for theirs is a legacy destined to embolden
generations of women to come. Liane B. Russell fled
Austria with nothing and later became a renowned U.S.
scientist whose research on the effects of radiation on
embryos made a difference to thousands of lives. Gena
Turgel was a prisoner who worked in the hospital at Bergen
-Belsen and cared for the young Anne Frank, who was dying
of typhus. Gena survived and went on to write a memoir and
spent her life educating children about the Holocaust. Ida
and Louise Cook were British sisters who repeatedly
smuggled out jewelry and furs and served as sponsors for
refugees, and they also established temporary housing for
immigrant families in London. Retired U.S. Army Major
General Mari K. Eder wrote this book because she knew
their stories needed to be told-and the sooner the better.
For theirs is a legacy destined to embolden generations of
women to come"--|cProvided by publisher.
