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. 001380197 61020 $$aOak Ridge National Laboratory$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001380197 61027 $$aOak Ridge National Laboratory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00554231 001380197 647_7 $$aWorld War$$d(1939-1945)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01180924 001380197 648_7 $$a1900-1999$$2fast 001380197 650_0 $$aWomen employees$$zTennessee$$zOak Ridge$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001380197 650_0 $$aWomen$$zTennessee$$zOak Ridge$$vInterviews. 001380197 650_0 $$aUranium enrichment$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001380197 650_0 $$aOfficial secrets$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001380197 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$xWomen$$zTennessee$$zOak Ridge. 001380197 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$zTennessee$$zOak Ridge. 001380197 650_7 $$aManners and customs.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01007815 001380197 650_7 $$aOfficial secrets.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01044261 001380197 650_7 $$aUranium enrichment.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01162259 001380197 650_7 $$aWomen.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01176568 001380197 650_7 $$aWomen employees.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01177615 001380197 650_7 $$aWomen$$xEmployment$$zOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$xHistory.$$2sears 001380197 650_7 $$aWomen$$zOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$vInterviews.$$2sears 001380197 650_7 $$aUranium$$xHistory.$$2sears 001380197 650_7 $$aSecrecy$$xHistory.$$2sears 001380197 650_7 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$xWomen$$zOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$2sears 001380197 650_7 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$zOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$2sears 001380197 651_0 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001380197 651_0 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$xSocial life and customs$$y20th century. 001380197 651_0 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$vBiography. 001380197 651_7 $$aTennessee$$zOak Ridge.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01206288 001380197 651_7 $$aUnited States.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204155 001380197 651_7 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$xHistory.$$2sears 001380197 651_7 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$xSocial life and customs.$$2sears 001380197 651_7 $$aOak Ridge (Tenn.)$$vBiography.$$2sears 001380197 655_4 $$aInterviews. 001380197 655_4 $$aBiographies. 001380197 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919896 001380197 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001380197 655_7 $$aInterviews.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423832 001380197 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 001380197 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2tlcgt 001380197 85200 $$bgen$$hF444.O3 K54 2014 001380197 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1380197$$pGLOBAL_SET 001380197 980__ $$aBOOK 001380197 980__ $$aBIB
