Over the last two years, nearly 5,000 documents detailing US and British codebreaking during WWII have been declassified. These include the complete notebooks of Alan Turing, full texts of deciphered U-boat cables, and master cryptanalyst William Friedman's diagram of the Japanese purple cipher machine - which he deduced without ever having seen the actual device. By drawing on these files, plus numerous other documents and oral histories, Stephen Budiansky has written a gripping narrative ofcodebreaking during the war.

(Subject: Intelligence, Espionage, Reconnaissance & Electronic Warfare) Signs of use. In 1939 cryptoanalysis was in its infancy, yet he codebreakers accomplished extraordinary feats of mathematical wizardry turning the tide of many critical battles, from the fight against the Nazi U-boats in the Atlantic, to the climactic showdown against Yamamoto's aircraft carriers at Midway, and the success of the D-Day invasion. Drawing on thousands of files, the author explains how the most impenetrable of Axis codes were broken, including the German ENIGMA and Japanese "Purple" machines, and traces the origins of the top-secret project, codenamed VENONA, that broke the Soviet spy codes.
