The Secret War Of Julia Child by Diana R. Chambers
Julia Child, before becoming a culinary icon, embarked on an unexpected journey during World War II. At thirty, she joined America's first espionage agency, the Office of Strategic Services, where she worked her way from a file clerk in Washington, DC, to managing secret files under General "Wild Bill" Donovan. Her wartime experiences took her to the remote frontlines of Ceylon, India, and China, where she discovered adventure, self-awareness, and love with Paul Child, a mapmaker. This story unveils a lesser-known chapter of Julia's life, highlighting her transformation and the profound impact of her wartime experiences.
