'For as long as people have been able to write, there have been people who have sought to disguise their words so that only the initiated could read them. Discover the codes that changed the course of history and encryptions that changed the nature of civilisations, tales once firmly hidden from view, brought into the light.''
Codes are fundamentally about secrets, and the world has always needed secrets.
'Bletchley Park Brainteasers is outrageously difficult but utterly fascinating.' THE EXPRESS
A CUNNING CHRONICLE OF THE 50 CODES THAT ALTERED THE COURSE OF HISTORY AND CHANGED THE WORLD . . . AND YOUR CHANCE TO SOLVE THEM!
There have been secret codes since before the Old Testament, and there were secret codes in the Old Testament too. Almost as soon as writing was invented, so too were the devious means to hide messages and keep them under the wraps of secrecy.
Discover uncrackable codes, secret cyphers and hidden messages from across time that reveal a new history of a secret world. From the temples of Ancient Greece to the court of Elizabeth I; from antique manuscripts whose codes might hold prophecies of doom to the modern realm of quantum mechanics, you will see how a few concealed phrases could help win wars, spark revolutions and even change the faces of great nations.
Secrets are there to be discovered, if you have the skills to decrypt them.
