Heisenberg's chain reaction

This my story on the history of atomic weapons, I started the research after my father passed away.
My father left school and went straight into the Royal Navy in 1953, he left in 1960 and went to work at ROF Burghfield and started a very long career within the atomic weapon establishment.

I am by no means an expert on the subject, but its a story that has fascinated me and I wanted to really dig into the timeline that led to the events that changed the world forever.

I couldn't find a simple easy to read account of the events so I decided to document them and write this story.

From the beginning right up to today, hopefully you will enjoy this journey in my own words, written hopefully in a simplistic style so not to complicate it and make it a perfect story for anyone who wants to learn about the subject.
