The Girls of Atomic City

the Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II
Dec 08, 2014HerNoseInABookGal rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Historical narrative about the day to day workings to accomplish the build of the devastating atomic bomb USA dropped on Japan. Details, secrets within the framework of a normal working life in a seemingly factory town that's not what it appears to be. Deep secrets underlie the truth. Come to understand the complex scientific underpinning of the cold war and conservative fifties. Reads like a romantic novel; a powerful story about the science behind the bomb and the every day people working on it.
