    A great insight into Enigma

    A complex book written in plain English to explain the work done in breaking the Enigma code. Very detailed and needs a lot of concentration when reading,but a superb insight into the work done at Bletchley park.

    More of a specialist text than a book aimed at the general reader

    If you're looking for a general book about how the heroes of Bletchley Park broke the Enigma Code during World War 2, then this probably isn't the book for you. It does contain a lot of technical detail about some of the methods used by the codebreakers at Bletchley Park, and I can see why it might have got him in trouble with HMG (even almost 40 years after the events he's describing!), but you really need to know a bit about codes & code-breaking to make sense of it.

  • Fascinating explanation of the Enigma machine encryption and how it was broken.

    I read this book in a couple of days, it is quite gripping ,describing in great detail, how the Enigma machine worked as used by the German Army and Air Force. It also explains how Ultra used the information obtained from decodes. I am now reading it again quite slowly in order to understand the code breaking methods used by the mathematical gurus at Bletchley Park
