Title109 East PalaceTypeNonMusicAudioMonographClassificationLCC: SDB 57866 Could not render: bf:statusSummaryConant offers a human look at the brilliant physicists who for more than two years, along with their families, lived, laughed, despaired and rejoiced in a secret, sequestered, claustrophobic city in the New Mexico desert while working on the Manhattan Project. Despite its grand name, 109 East Palace was the nondescript office in Santa Fe that served as a gateway to the Los Alamos complex. The narrative is framed by the perspective of Dorothy McKibben, who, in running that office, issuing security passes and coordinating logistics, was, says Conant, the "gatekeeper" to the hidden world of Los Alamos.Authorized Access PointConant, Jennet 109 East Palace
