Library Loot
This week's loot! The Atomic City Girls, by Janet Beard. The title is a bit deceiving because there are several major characters who are male. It's set in the Manhattan Project's facility built in Oak Ridge Tennessee during World War II. It wasn't just a facility; it was an instant city built for thousands of people who came from near and far to work there (even though most had no idea what they were actually working on).
