Los Alamos Historical Society
Hundreds of people contributed to Project Y. Some were responsible for scientific contributions that made their names famous, while many others fell into obscurity, though they, too, contributed to the success of the Manhattan Project or the preservation of its history.
Their names aren’t recognizable when we see them. For me, one such name was Edith Truslow.
In 1997, the Los Alamos Historical Society published Manhattan District History: Nonscientific Aspects of Los Alamos Project Y 1942 through 1946.
