Book Reviews of Codebreakers: The Inside Story of Bletchley Park

Book Review: A good story
Summary: 4 Stars

This is an old story of how the boffins at Bletchley Park used the enigma machine to break the German codes early in WW II. It's an exciting story. The fact that two of my friends were involved in the code-breaking makes the story more personal for me.
