<p>.Fleeing the Depression: Finding Refuge in World War II chronicles the adventures of a small town girl defying 2Oth century rules to become a strong, independent woman. Growing up, Penelope heard the older women’s euphemisms about sex and mating. Never satisfied with empty explanations, she read her physician father’s anatomy books to learn the truth about female bodies. Later, as a dietetic intern at one of the Army’s biggest hospitals, she learned the language of combat soldiers and the horrors of war. Penelope’s curiosity, sense of humor, and fearlessness emboldened her as she traveled a man’s world and, through her actions and ways, helped pioneer the contours that define modern-day feminism.</p>
