Lorenz : breaking Hitler's top secret code at Bletchley Park

Roberts, Jerry (Captain)2018
Books
The breaking of the Enigma machine is one of the most heroic stories of the Second World War, and highlights the crucial work of the codebreakers at Bletchley Park which shortened the war by several years. But there was another code machine used by Hitler himself to convey messages to his top commanders in the field. A machine more complex and secure than Enigma. A machine that could never be broken. For 60 years no one knew about Lorenz or 'Tunny', or the courageous group of men who finally broke the code. Here for the first time, codebreaker Jerry Roberts tells how these forgotten heroes of Bletchley cracked the puzzle.
