Description

During World War 2, President Franklin D.Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill pooled their nations’ resources in the desperate race to beat the Germans to the name of the game of the atomic bomb. This book tells the story of the British scientists who journeyed to Los Alamos, New Mexico, to assist develop the world’s first nuclear weapons. The contributions of the British Mission to Los Alamos, that have been in large part overpassed, were necessary to the completion of the project. As well as, the two dozen scientists who collaborated with their American and Canadian allies were to have a profound effect at the post-War world, helping to shape the nuclear programs of the USA, Great Britain and, more controversially, the united states.
