"An appealing topic and size as well as eye-catching illustrations and limited chapters make this series appropriate for younger readers, academically challenged older students, and most middle grade students. Mirror writing, geometric codes, Morse Code, and the World War II German Enigma machine are samples of history and techniques covered. Leonardo da Vinci possibly used mirror writing because a left-handed person writing from left to right smears ink. Civil War forces used a transposition code. High student interest in the topic will make this a series hard to keep on the shelves. School library collections will certainly benefit from including the series in their collections. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites. Table of Contents. Index. Recommended."
