Review
"A cogent and valuable guide through the intelligence maze of the Second World War."--Bradley F. Smith, author of Sharing Secrets with Stalin: How the Allies Traded Intelligence, 1941-1945
"Demands the attention of everyone interested in the strategic, operational, and technological history of World War II."--Kenneth J. Hagan, author of This People's Navy: The Making of American Sea Power
"Essential reading for anyone interested in intelligence during the Second World War."--John Ferris, author of Intelligence and Strategy
"Filled with strikingly original insights."--Edward J. Drea, author of MacArthur's ULTRA: Codebreaking in the War against Japan, 1942-1945
"Bath has written an essential guide to the Anglo-American intelligence labyrinth in WWII and the role of code breaking. The book is especially interesting because of his insights to the people, personalities and motivations in both the United States and Britain."--Cryptologia
"This is a well-researched and well-written investigation of a fascinating but neglected topic in the intelligence history of the war. It is a book that will reward both the specialist and the general reader."--Journal of Military History
"Clearly argued, well written, and extensively researched not only in American and British archives, but also in those of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. It is a 'must' for all students of Anglo-American relations as well as for historians of intelligence in World War II."--Northern Mariner
"An unsurpassed view of an extraordinary effort to cooperation in intelligence sharing among a number of Allied powers locked in a bitter war against dangerous enemies."--American Neptune
"Bath offers intelligence historians a guided tour through the structure of Anglo-American naval intelligence co-operation."--Intelligence and National Security
"Bath's account is a rich and detailed analysis replete with both the personal and technical dimensions of this vital subject."--Canadian Military History
