A very interesting and well-told piece of creative nonfiction. It hit on an aspect of WWII that was new-to-me, which was nice. The subtitle about the ingenious women is definitely prevalent in the book, but a bit overstating it to make the subtitle. Yes the women who were involved are in it, but really this is more of an overview of how tactical games were used in WWII naval strategy.

An excellent insight into naval tactics during the war, as well as the indispensable role that women played. Engaging and well-written, it varied between a thrilling narrative and an informative text - a mix that worked perfectly to maintain my interest and increase my understanding. Solid read.
