サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In the cold winter of early 1917, the world was in the throes of one of its deadliest conflicts, World War I. From the muddy trenches of Western Europe to the icy waters of the Atlantic, nations were locked in a horrific struggle that seemed to have no end in sight. Thousands of miles away, the United States stood on the sidelines, committed to a policy of neutrality, even as the cries of the suffering echoed across the globe.
At the heart of this struggle was Germany, wrestling to maintain its place as the world teetered on the brink of change. Arthur Zimmerman, the German Foreign Secretary, bore the weight of these global tensions, looking for a way to tilt the balance of the war in Germany's favor. This pivotal moment led to the birth of the Zimmerman Telegram - a secret message that would change the trajectory of the war and ripple through the annals of history.
A world away, in a nondescript room in the heart of London, a team of British cryptanalysts known as Room 40 were immersed in a silent, intellectual combat of their own. Unknown to them, they were about to uncover a message that would shake the world's political stage and decisively alter the course of the Great War.
In this dramatic narrative, we invite you on a journey through the twisting tunnels of political strategy, secret communications, espionage, and global diplomacy. This is the story of the Zimmerman Telegram Interception - a saga that reveals how one coded message could change the world forever.
