War of Shadows: Codebreakers, Spies, and the Secret Struggle to Drive the Nazis from the Middle East
Gershom Gorenberg
How the British decoded Enigma messages during WWII is not really the point of my column today, but for those who are interested, War of Shadows, by Gershom Gorenberg, is a great read and, among other things, an accessible account of that achievement. https://www.publicaffairsbooks.com/titles/gershom-gorenberg/war-of-shadows/9781549186400/

Tightrope: Americans Reaching for Hope
Nicholas D. Kristof
Just finished "Tightrope" by Nick Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. Such a good book: Both sweeping and intimate in its portrait of all that has gone wrong for lower-income Americans. I guess I'm a year late, but it's really good. https://t.co/AOzKY1hUYY
