In "The Theory that Would Not Die", McGrayne states that Baye's rule was used to crack codes in Cryptography. Is there some simple explanation for this? If not, is there a textbook that explains it concisely?

One source is Edward Simpson: Bayes at Bletchley Park (pdf). If you google "bayes rule bletchley" you will find others.
