About This Item

Robert Hale, 1976. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. 1976 FIRST U.K. EDITION hardcover with dust jacket. APPEARS UNREAD with unmarked, crisp-edged, well-bound pages. Jacket shows minor shelf-rubbing and minor edge wear only. A very good, collectible copy! From the jacket description: "In this book the author sets forth the story of hidden writing from earliest times to the present. In simple terms he explains how ciphers and codes work and how they are unravelled, how the Arabs discovered the constancy of letter frequencies and their remarkable forms of invisible ink. Illustrating the vital importance of security, he explains how in World War II fifty German code breakers, a terribly efficient enemy, kept the U-boats posted with our convoy movements...The author writes with intimate knowledge of combining security with the use of words.
