Description
Behind the celebrated code-breaking at Bletchley Park lies another secret
The men and women of the Y (for Wireless) Service were sent out across the world to run listening stations from Gibraltar to Cairo, intercepting the German militarys encrypted messages for decoding back at the now-famous Bletchley Park mansion.
Such wartime postings were life-changing adventures travel out by flying boat or Indian railways, snakes in filing cabinets and heat so intense the perspiration ran into your shoes - but many of the secret listeners found lifelong romance in their far-flung corner of the world. Now, drawing on dozens of interviews with surviving veterans, Sinclair McKay tells their remarkable story at last.
