Opis

Military intelligence, neglected in the pre-war period, had by mid-1942 proved itself indispensible through its gathering of information from radio messages coded in the supposedly unbreakable German Enigma Cipher. Ralph Bennett, who worked for four years at Bletchley Park as a senior producer of the intelligence (Ultra) derived from the Enigma decrypts, illustrates in this collection some of the steps by which he and others developed the new type de-crypting system and in the process provides a candid glimpse of British intelligence both past and present.

Intelligence and National Security- "In the distorting and self-referential discourse of academic intelligence Bennett"s is a compelling if awkward voice of sanity"



Paper Wars, - "another work that is mandatory reading for those interested in a proper understanding of Ultra...This book is the result of the work of a meticulos historian always looking to separate supposition from fact...his efforts to fill in the gaps in intelligence history...must be applauded
