Reader ReviewsThis book provides a very fascinating look at substitution and transposition ciphers of the WWII era. It provides detailed instructions on how each cipher is implemented, and provides a chapter on the cryptanalysis of ciphers as well as a chapter of ciphers for the reader to break. A great text for the study of manual cipher systems.
