These conditions helped fuel the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party during the 1930s. As fascist governments expanded across Europe, another war became almost unavoidable. While political leaders and military commanders prepared for global conflict, an American woman named Virginia Hall quietly began a path that would eventually make her one of the most effective intelligence operatives of the entire war.
