I Was A Spy! is a memoir written by Marthe McKenna, a Belgian nurse who worked as a spy for the British during World War I. The book chronicles her experiences as a nurse in German-occupied Belgium, her recruitment by British intelligence, and her subsequent work as a spy. McKenna's work involved gathering intelligence on German troop movements and relaying this information to British agents. She also helped smuggle wounded British soldiers out of Belgium and provided medical assistance to Allied prisoners of war. The book provides a unique perspective on the war, as McKenna was able to move freely between the German and Allied lines due to her status as a nurse. The memoir is a gripping account of courage and resourcefulness in the face of danger, and offers a fascinating insight into the world of espionage during World War I.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
