Jackson, John, ed. The Secret War of Hut 3: The First Story of How Intelligence from Enigma Signals Decoded at Bletchley Park Was Used During World War II. London: Military Press, 2002.

According to Kruh, Cryptologia 28.1, "Hut 3 was responsible for the processing of signals once the code in which they had been transmitted had been broken. They translated and annotated them and reported the contents to Government departments and commanders in the field." This work is based on the now declassified history of Hut 3's activities, written at the end of the war by those who worked there.

Young, I&NS 16.3, finds that this work is a "fine piece of scholarship" written with "enviable lucidity." The author "surrounds his data with ideas" as he explores the ways in which perceptions "are generated, nourished, and altered." Jackson's "overall appraisal of French intelligence work is complimentary."

For Irvine, H-Diplo, and Intelligencer 12.1, Jackson's work is "a first rate piece of historical writing." The author's research "is impeccable. His writing displays an exemplary degree of expositional clarity." And he integrates his findings about French intelligence into a broader context.

Peake, Studies 50.2 (2006), says that these "articles provide detailed and well-documented examples of how intelligence has influenced world affairs. The result is a valuable contribution to the history of the intelligence profession."

For Jenkins, I&NS 22.6 (Dec. 2007), the whole of this work "is not more than the sum of its parts"; nevertheless, "the parts are quite good.... [A]ll the essays are drawn from the Euripean experience.... Students of intelligence may want to pick and choose among these essays, but all have their strengths and the collection is a valuable one."
