During the Second World War a major part of the strategy of the
Grand Alliance was shipping. The Germans fully appreciated the
vulnerability of this and their attack on it, largely by means of
submarines, became known as the Battle of the Atlantic. The attack
was overcome, with some difficulty, by a number of means. One,
which remained generally unknown until the 1970s, was the
decryption of German coded signals, now usually called Ultra.
Subsequent histories often tended to attribute the outcome of the
Battle largely to the operation of this factor almost by itself,
sometimes because of a lack of rigorous analysis and also because
of a failure to set this important subject into the full and
complex contexts in which it operated. This study rectifies this
deficiency, setting out the full story of the series of campaigns
and carefully assessing the complicated pattern of factors, thus
allowing a much more balanced understanding of code-breaking.
