This was a very interesting biography set mostly during WWII on the Island of Sark. The Dame of Sark was a remarkable woman, who knew the value of home, family, duty, and loyalty. She set a wonderful example of strength in the face of extremely trying circumstances and how to maintain dignity during deprivation. She was no victim, even though she could have chosen that route many times. I read it online here.
