Decided to get this from the library in anticipation of seeing the film in a couple weeks time, and I definitely enjoyed it, but I do sometimes find these very narrow subject history books a bit too thorough in places. So I am not 100% all of the information needed to make it to the final book, but a good amount of it I also can't imagine being recorded anywhere else so, for posterity's sake, I can't truly bemoan it.
Anyway, this is certainly a spy story to match what you see in fiction that has been well researched and recorded.

Skimmed this mostly. Way to long and technical for my taste. I appreciate the authors research but it makes for a difficult read for me.

Unimpeachable, even if I don't care for military history. The musical's unsurprisingly perhaps better

This is an interesting book about a very clever war operation, but the author put so much unnecessary filler in that it was ruined. I did not need to know half the things in this book so get the same outcome!
Frustrating.

Excellent history book. Not only is the topic fascinating, but the author weaves the stories of the many people, both real and fictional, into a story that I didn’t want to end.
