Dear Bernard I am writing just to thank you for so many hours of enjoyment reading your books. I am a person who does not really do books, however since buying my first book, Sharpe’s Waterloo, i have found myself constantly looking out for my next “Bernard Fix.” I am now filled with joy when i am asked who is my favourite author being able to reply that it is you, rather than feeling inadequate as i couldn’t name one. Once again, thank you so much Reuben
