Born and raised in Saskatchewan, Gladys Arnold traveled to Paris in October 1939, and was the only Canadian reporter to experience the invasion of France by the Germans in the spring of 1940. One Woman’s War is Gladys Arnold’s vivid, eyewitness account of the fall of France and the growth of the Free French resistance. She was one of the first journalists to interview General Charles de Gaulle, and she brings to life many of the memorable people, French and Canadian, who fought the underground war.
