A must read!

Station X- Decoding Nazi Secrets is a must read. It reveals the complexities of the task that was laid before them of deciphering the Enigma Code. Included are some of the personality characteristics, politics, group function, as well as the more technical aspects of breaking the code. It is a book that I have highlighted and use as a reference. Truly captivating!

Pulled in by the subject matter....

The subject matter originally attracted me to this selection, as secret codes have always interested me...but this holds alot more...you not only gain an understanding of what was done, but you get to feel like you were a part of it! The problem solvers are as engaging as the solutions are fascinating. Liked this enough that I'm buying another as a gift.
