"Very interesting. The book is a detailed timeline of the events of the Enigma pre-war and post-war. I didn't realize how complicated the machine was and how long they worked to break it. I did skip a few chapters, it goes into real detail on how the Enigma works. I'll be honest, I still don't really understand how the Enigma works. I enjoyed the differnet stories of how they captured the machines. It's a good book if you like real detailed history books."
