Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Behind the celebrated code-breaking at Bletchley Park lies another secret.The men and women of the 'Y' (for Wireless') Service were sent out across the world to run listening stations from Gibraltar to Cairo, intercepting the German military's encrypted messages for decoding back at the now-famou…s Bletchley Park mansion. Such wartime postings were life-changing adventures - travel out by flying boat or Indian railways, snakes in filing cabinets and heat so intense the perspiration ran into your shoes - but many of the secret listeners found lifelong romance in their far-flung corner of the world. Now, drawing on dozens of interviews with surviving veterans, Sinclair McKay tells their remarkable story at last. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

The Secret Listeners' tells the story of the usually very young men and women who were sent to farflung outposts to locate and monitor endless streams of radio traffic around the clock and transcribe its Morse code at a speed few have ever managed since. Without them, the Allies would have learnt nothing of the enemy's military intentions. Behind the celebrated code-breaking at Bletchley Park lies another secret. Before the German war machine's messages could be decoded thousands more young men and women had to locate and monitor endless streams of radio traffic around the clock, and transcribe its Morse code with a speed few have ever managed since. They were part of the "Y"- (for "Wireless") Service: the Listening Service - an organisation just as secret as Bletchley Park but still little-known and unrecognised. Without it, however, the Allies would have known nothing of the enemy's military intentions. Its listeners might be posted to bustling Cairo to listen in to Rommel's Eighth Army, or Casablanca in Morocco, or Karachi for the Burma campaign, or in one case even the idyllic Cocos Islands in the Indian Ocean to monitor Japan. To men and women often hardly out of school such exotic postings were life-changing adventures. Now, in the follow-up to his Sunday Times-bestselling The Secret Life of Bletchley Park, through dozens of interviews with surviving veterans, Sinclair McKay chronicles the history and achievements of this remarkable group of people and the Y-Service's vital contribution to the war effort.
