Review of Images of the National Archives Codebreakers by Stephen Twigge

word in the describes the majority of the contents of this book. On the 132 pages, there are 107 images; nearly all the are at least half-page and many are full-page. Most images are of pages of documents The National Kew. The back cover blurb states that the “ book reveals the story of British codebreakers ” and “ ends with a re-assessment of the work undertaken by the British code breaker and mathematician Alan Turing. ” The book is not that dra-matic; the text describes well-known stories of twentieth century codebreaking and the now common view of the work and life of Alan Turing.
