dear sir, I do not wish to take-up much of you precious time I have all your Sharpe books most in hard-back, though they cost a lot of money which we all work for. Did you know that Conan Doyle made 3 times as much from reviving Holmes books, than he made from those that went before. Although latterly equilibrium of sales was restored, I’m sure you take my point. so if you work to make money like me, LOOK SHARPE!. yours hopefully, Chris Gyngell
