A nice read
I have many books on Bletchley Park and counterintelligence and was pleasantly surprised that there was some new information that I had not encountered before. It is a much lighter read than the authors’ XYZ book which is also well worth reading.
if you liked The Imitation Game â¦
Youâll probably like this book. It tells of many other people involved in codebreaking during WW2 in England, men and women. I wanted more about Turing and the characters in the film but itâs still an informative book that will hold your attentikn (and rectify some details the film got wrong or mushed together for the sake of a 2 hour film – but i still like the film a lot.)
Amazing
This is not fiction and a great book
Code Breakers of Bletchley Park
Great book , a present for my family
A good look at BP people
Does a great job telling the stories of the people of BP. Not much technical jargon. Well written. Sophisticated language without the bore of textbooks. Recommended for history buffs on a BP hyper fixation binge, but probably not for the casual reader with little to no interest in Bletchley Park.
Good overview and history of the code breakers
Worth a readNot many details on any specific messages of importance.More in the weeds on the people and personalities.
Good read!
Interesting, good details.
Inside story.
Liked the inside knowledge displayed by the wrier. There were a few instances where reference was made to things not explained but this did not detract from the overall quality of the story.
Just as I expected, Dermot Turing has written another superb book about aspects of Bletchley Park (BP). A compact but information filled work, including several personalities, carefully structured in historical order, telling the story in a highly readable and dramatically unfolding way. Not lost in a morass of technical details but a helpful list at the end will enable further pursuit of more technical aspects for those inclined. This is the ideal book for the ‘newbie’ to BP and it’s amazing stories, but also for those of us with many books on the subject it offers a condensed reminder of the whole story and brings the people who worked there out of the shadows. I highly recommend this book to everybody, you will not be disappointed.
Generally a good book well worth a read, heavy going at times but worth the effort. Superb and detailed research but I have had more pleasurable reads. That said for people wanting knowledge about war time code breaking operations this book will be very helpful
OK
After visiting Bletchley I really wanted to learn more. But I must confess I found it difficult to follow most of the book
This was an interesting insight into the personalities working at Bletchley Park. There was enough detail for me as an historian to find the story interesting and also enough technical detail to please the mathematical and scientific readers.
