The untold story of Bletchley Park's key role in the success of the Normandy campaign

Since the secret of Bletchley Park was revealed in the 1970s, the work of its codebreakers has become one of the most famous stories of the Second World War. But cracking the Nazis' codes was only the start of the process. Thousands of secret intelligence workers were then involved in making crucial information available to the Allied leaders and commanders who desperately needed it.

Using previously classified documents, David Kenyon casts the work of Bletchley Park in a new light, as not just a codebreaking establishment but as a fully developed intelligence agency. He shows how preparations for the war's turning point - the Normandy landings in 1944 - had started at Bletchley years earlier, in 1942, with the careful collation of information extracted from enemy signals traffic. This account reveals the true character of Bletchley's vital contribution to success in Normandy and, ultimately, Allied victory.

Adds more detail to D day story than I have ever heard elsewhere. The narrator can't do accents but is OK.

Great

The role and scope of the intelligence gathering, analysis and the organisational structures of Bletchley have never before been explored in such depth. The book lays bare the benefits of team work, sharing and trust providing a template for modern Intelligence services so often ignored with resultant dire consequences.

Outstanding and detailed

Interesting and comprehensive account, well written and easy to follow.
Unfortunately the dry, academic style of the reader can become tedious and the decision by the (clearly English) reader to pronounce the letter 'z' as ”zee” rather than ”zed” is particularly annoying.

Let down by reader.

Bletchley Park (BP) by 1945 had become an intel factory, employing over 9K. They did vital work against many different codes & machines apart from Enigma. Dr Kenyon, the leading expert on BP's archives, offers a pathbreaking work re both D-Day & BP..

I’ll probably pick up the paper book proper as it seems well researched and written however in this Audible version the narrator sounds as if he is sucking a boily with his head wrapped in bandages, the affected accents of certain of the the subjects are hammy to say the least.
Big shame.

Great stuff poorly delivered
