The Red A Woman in the RCMP, by Jane Hall, is the personal story of a woman who joined the RCMP in the seventies. As one of the first few female members, the author experienced the birth, maturity, and decline of a courageous movement within the RCMP to include females within its ranks. Ms. Hall's war stories are fascinating sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but always revealing. As well, we gain a historical and political perspective from one who was there.
