There is also a really good book called Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson that has a lot to do with Bletchley Park and WW2 in general. Less informative but more entertaining.

It's fiction, but there was a lot of interesting information in there about codes and codebreaking.

"The Code Book" by Simon Singh is the non-fiction book to read if codes and codebreaking interest you.
