Thank you for writing the “Sharpe Books”. Being the father of two young boys I have always looked for ways to fire my own verbal storytelling and like most boys (and their Dads) they want for adventure and heroism, you have facilitated that. Thank you! I Stumbled across “Sharpe’s Tiger” sometime in 1998 in preparation for an extended stay away from my family on business. I loved every page and read it in 4 evenings. I however, did not know you had written an entire series, how surprised I was. I wish I still had that earlier version as I try to give away books I have read and enjoyed to friends or family who I think would appreciate such a gesture. I have always enjoyed history and what better way to fire the imagination than to add a story that compliments the facts. I was going to follow your example and write as you say “Horatio Hornblower for land series” a “Richard Sharpe of the Americas” book, looks like you beat me to it I cant wait for October…..Again Thank you
