THE BLETCHLEY GIRLS - Tessa Dunlop


 




















A bit disappointing.  The book focus's on a group of women who were still alive around 2014, all of whom worked at Bletchley., all were in their 90's at the time of interview by the author.

The book consists of mini biographies of each of these ladies, all who were very clever and played an important war time role.

The negatives for me was the author referring to the women by their Christian names throughout, which got very confusing for my small brain and as stated above it is more biography regarding their childhoods' etc leading up to the war years.  Personally for me I wanted to know more of what they did at Bletchley rather than what they did on Saturday night.
