Requests:  1 Summary:  This is the story of the young women of Oak Ridge, Tennessee, who unwittingly played a crucial role in one of the most significant moments in U.S. history. The Tennessee town of Oak Ridge was created from scratch in 1942. One of the Manhattan Project's secret cities. All knew something big was happening at Oak Ridge, but few could piece together the true nature of their work until the bomb "Little Boy" was dropped over Hiroshima, Japan, and the secret was out. The reverberations from their work there, work they did not fully understand at the time, are still being felt today.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 976.873 Kiernan Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waianae Public Library Adult Nonfiction 976.873 Ki Checked In Add Copy to MyList
