Having just spent a day in Los Alamos, I was interested to read a bit about its history. I got a little bit from the Los Alamos History Museum, but wanted more.
This certainly isn't the best book on the planet, and it could have used a bit of editing to remove some of the repetition (and the "charged electron" phrase, which I found odd... as opposed to an uncharged electron?), but it certainly satisfied my curiosity to read more about the Atomic City.
