Illustrated wrappers, 8vo, 20 cm, xxi, 321 pp, ills. The inside story of the WWII work of Bletchley Park and its outstations, where German, Italian, and Japanese signals were successfully broken, interpreted, and summarized, and their essence distributed to Allied commanders in Britain and abroad. Uniquely, this book is written by men and women who themselves worked at Bletchley. The firsthand accounts cast light on all aspects of Bletchley's operations - not just the codebreaking but also the translation and elucidation of decrypts, the rapid summarizing and dispatching of their contents (Ultra intelligence) to Whitehall and operational Commands; the discussion with them of the significance of that intelligence; and the meticulous indexing that was essential both for analysis and in the evercontinuing struggle against new ciphers. General sections on the handling of the decrypts are followed by more technical sections subdivided into the main programmes in which Bletchley was absorbed: the Enigma machine and the bombe; Fish and Colossus; field ciphers and tactical codes; work on Japanese codes. Fascinating. Very Good.

Cloth, 8vo, xix, 394 pp, 46 plates, 10 figs. From the blurb: "Dr. Plenderleith. previously Keeper of the Research Laboratory in the British Museum, wrote this book in response to requests from museums and private collectors at home and abroad. Based on upwards of forty years' practical experience in dealing with the wide variety of problems that arise in the conservation of museum objects of all kinds, it is the most comprehensive work of its kind in any language. Information is given on the nature of the materials found in museums, libraries, archives and picture galleries; the causes of their deterioration are discussed, and detailed instructions given on methods of preservation, and, where necessary, on repair and restoration. Its numerous illustrations of superb works of art which have been saved for posterity by treatment in the laboratory bear witness to the success of techniques which are based on a combination of scientific knowledge and a specialized form of craftsmanship. The book has been extensively revised for this second edition and includes many new techniques of conservation that have been developed since it was first published." Very Good in a price-clipped dustwrapper with a creased spine-panel.
