Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

At 18 years of age, Charlotte Vine-Stevens (Betty) leaves college and volunteers for the ATS, the Womens' Army. After basic training, she is given a travel warrant and instructions to go to Bletchley Station. Between 1941 and 1945 Charlotte is stationed at the Government Code & Cypher school's codebreaking operation at Bletchley Park. At first Charlotte works with Major Ralph Tester in the Mansion, where she registered undeciphered Enigma messages. Then she moves to the Japanese Section in Block F to paraphrase deciphered Japanese messages. In 1945, this work leads Charlotte to see out the war in the Pacific at The Pentagon. Secret Postings is a personal memoir following Charlotte's life from a childhood in rural Shropshire to a turbulent pre-war Germany, a Second World War adventure at Bletchley Park, the Pentagon and beyond.
