Decode the story of Elizebeth Friedman, the cryptologist who took down gangsters and Nazi spies
In this picture book biography, young readers will learn all about
Elizebeth Friedman (1892¿1980), a brilliant American code breaker who
smashed Nazi spy rings, took down gangsters, and created the CIA's first

Elizebeth¿s work undoubtedly saved thousands of lives. Extensive back
matter includes explanations of codes and ciphers, further information

secret messages for young readers to decode.
