### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An interesting series of essays
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2014*

This book consists of 30 essays divided into four sections – The Production of Ultra Intelligence, Enigma, Fish (the German Lorenz machine), and Field Ciphers and Tactical Codes.  These essays were written by the men and women who worked at Bletchley Park deciphering German, Italian and Japanese codes and ciphers.  Their stories range from the human elements of their work (how they were recruited, working and living conditions, etc.) to technical aspects of how they went about their deciphering efforts.  Some of the book is technical, but for the most part the book is completely accessible to someone without any deciphering experience or even a desire to delve deeply into the details to this field.I recommend this book to people interested in learning more about what went on at Bletchley Park, as told by the people who worked there.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Codebreakers:  Geniuses - but not real readable.
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2013*

I chose 3 because the information on code breaking was way above my head.  I am sure people who are more technically inclined would give this a higher rating.  These are first hand accounts so obviously this is very authentic information.  I would have liked a more readable style and although these are personal accounts - there is very little that is 'personal' in here and yet, I do get the secrecy under which these amazing people worked. One is left to grab bits and pieces of writings from the various contributers to try and understand how bleeps and buzzes (or even words) are snatched from a maze of air noise on radio transmitters and then eventually are deciphered to be  the game plan of German forces to aid  Allied armies in their battle.  I think one has  to be a mathematician to get the whole story of decoding.For me, the info on decoding was just too staggering to understand.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lots of good info; some topics missing
  

*by V***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2001*

This book is a set of essays by people who actually worked at Bletchley Park during World War II, and describes in some detail what they did. Much of it is dry reading. That's because real cryptology is mostly dry work; months of boredom interrupted by moments of joy or chagrin. For those who care about World War II cryptology this is a "must read," but read either the 1967 or the 1996 edition of David Kahn's "The Codebreakers" first; otherwise, some of this book won't make much sense, for lack of context.Some of the most interesting work done at Bletchley Park, and some of the most valuable people who worked there, are not mentioned at all in this book; not even a hint. I assume this is because of two problems: the British Official Secrets Act presumably still applies to a good deal of what happened at Bletchley Park, and the topics of inquiry that involved both British and American personnel could hardly be described in detail without the agreement of NSA, which might be hard to come by in some cases. I wish that two friends of mine who worked at Bletchley Park had been able to write memoirs of their work and their interactions with colleagues. But that didn't happen. However, we can hope that the remaining veil of official silence will be lifted some day.
