Reviews
An exciting story . . . Christine was cool, fascinating, graceful, secretive, alternating a vivid warmth with remoteness, a lover of freedom and a law unto herself
This biography, stark, earthy, uplifting and bloodstained, deserves to be read even by those who are tired of war books. In Christine, Dostoyevsky, I suspect, would have found a heroine to his taste
Gripping.

Christine was the living emblem of courage. The spectacular virtues of those people who gave their lives for freedom on a daily basis must be honoured
