Best books to learn The Manhattan Project, in order

The Manhattan Project is a story of science, secrecy, and moral weight, and reading it well means holding all three at once. Start with a narrative overview of how the bomb was built, then go deep on the physics, the people, and the security world of Los Alamos, then the harder books on Hiroshima and the decision—where the ethics demand more than one account.
