I thought it was a great read.

There is a CSPAN author interview on youtube.  Not much about time-nuttery but 
lots of stories about the people involved.  Her grandfather was president of 
Harvard during WW II and he was tangled up with much of the wartime research.

Not particularly time-nutty, but if you liked Tuxedo Park, there is a good 
chance you will enjoy this book too:
  The Invention that Changed the World
  How a small group of RADAR pioneers won the second world war and launched a 
technological revolution
Robert Buderi

He is one of the writers contributing comments to the PBS/American Experience 
story about Loomis.
