Contents
More than ten thousand women from small towns and elite universities served during World War II as codebreakers for the U.S. Army and Navy. While their family members fought on the front lines, they learned in Washington the complex art of deciphering codes. Their work shortened the war and saved countless lives, and opened career opportunities that had previously been closed to them. Due to secrecy, their contribution remained unknown for a long time. Bestseller author Liza Mundy brings this inspiring story of courage, service, and scientific achievement to life through thorough research and interviews.
