Yes. I do. It was called Enigma: The Battle for the Code and it was written by Hugh Sebag-Montefiore. My copy was published in 2000, ISBN: 0 75381 130 8. Amazon have a later printing (or even publication) at £6,99 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Enigma-Battle-Cassell-Military- Paperbacks/dp/0304366625/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1328717442&sr=1-1- fkmr0) and I saw one on eBay. Peter, if you can wait until the next Meeting (and you remind me), I'll bring it along and you can borrow it. -- Terry Coles 64 bit computing with Kubuntu Linux -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday 2012-03-06 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread on mailing list: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue
