The Woman Who Censored Churchill

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative centers on Ruth Ive, a young stenographer tasked with censoring a secret transatlantic telephone link between Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Her role involved listening to their critical conversations while ensuring sensitive information remained secure. Sworn to secrecy and with all evidence of her work destroyed post-war, Ruth's account remained hidden until the declassification of Churchill's files in 1995, allowing her to finally share her remarkable experiences and insights into pivotal wartime discussions.
