Recenzje

Fascinating . [Ferris] has rescued several great women codebreakers from obscurity . [Bletchley Park] has become embedded in national myth, but Ferris offers cool and balanced judgment . This monumental work completes the authorised picture of a century of British intelligence, a testament to how far Britain has moved away from the cult of official secrecy Ben Macintyre The Times
