Mair Russell-Jones (1917–2013)

This is the story of Mair Thomas, later Mair Russell-Jones, who grew up in rural Wales and eventually became one of the women working as codebreakers at Bletchley Park during the Second World War. Her first-person narrative is threaded together by her son, Gethin, who provides the historical background and information about other players in the story. It is an interesting story, not just for the information about life at Bletchley, but also for the story of Mair herself and her family. Recommended.… (más)
