Spy Cities: The Hague and Haarlem
Description
NETHERLANDS: THE DUTCH RESISTANCE FIGHTS BACK AGAINST THE NAZIS
Stand on the beach where a real James Bond-style landing took place — dinner jacket worn under a wetsuit. Take breakfast at the Konditorei whose Jewish owner ran a dead-letter drop for MI6 at the outbreak of war. Then cycle the calm lanes of picturesque Haarlem, where teenage sisters Truus and Freddie Oversteegen assassinated German officers and their Dutch collaborators.
