World War II Editorial Review
"The Road to Station X" is a personal memoir of Sarah Benning, who shares her journey through World War Two. From her childhood days as the daughter of peers to working as a decoder at Bletchley Park and finishing the war at Admiralty, Benning's experiences gives readers a sense of what Britain went through during this sordid period. The book is well-written and brings a human dimension to the work done at Bletchley Park and the impact that intelligence had.
