The award-winning national bestseller about the American women who secretly served as codebreakers during World War II--a "prodigiously researched and engrossing" (New York Times) book that "shines a light on a hidden chapter of American history" (Denver Post).
Recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy from small towns and elite colleges, more than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to Washington and learned the meticulous work of code-breaking. Their efforts shortened the war, saved countless lives, and gave them access to careers previously denied to them. A strict vow of secrecy nearly erased their efforts from history; now, through dazzling research and interviews with surviving code girls, bestselling author Liza Mundy brings to life this riveting and vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.

二刷。写法很负责的一本非虚构，不仅叙写了二战时女性密码破译者们的种种经历，还囊括了对密码学的基本知识和当时社会背景的交代。 战时挥洒青春热血，战后一切归于平淡，甚至窘迫，殊不知社会分配价值也得论资排辈。好在人人心里自有一把秤，给得起自己交代，经得住历史评判。

一位军官在接受采访时并没有提及到在这个一万多人组成的破译密码部门有80%是女性，而且由于工作保密性质，她们在战争结束后难以得到应有的荣誉并再次就业。由于她们长期被告诉工作要保密不许透露给其他人，即使在90多岁被告知可以分享破译经历时，也选择了不发声，这是她们特有的战后创伤。

由于作者没有按时间顺序写作，这是一本读起来很头疼的历史书，但值得付出努力读下来。在二战和战后为美国情报界做出卓越贡献却被遗忘的女性们，终于有人讲出了她们的故事。
