For almost four desperate years between 1939 and 1943, British and American navies fought a savage, losing battle against German submarine wolf packs. The Allies might never have turned the tide of that historic battle without an intelligence coup. The race to break the German U-boat codes is one of the last great untold stories of World War II.
David Kahn, the world’s leading historian of cryptology, brings to life this tense, behind-the-scenes drama for the first time. Seizing the Enigma provides the definitive account of how British and American code breakers fought a war of wits against Nazi naval communications and helped lead the Allies to victory in the crucial Battle of the Atlantic.

Nog för att jag gillar ljudböcker om ww1/2 men det här blir för tjatigt om detaljer i hur en enigma fungerar. Säkert bra om man fått för sig att bygga sig en sådan, men som underhållande ljudbok nja.. då vill man nog hellre höra mer om historiska händelser omkring maskinen.
