Dear Bernard: No manuscripts or ideas, here, just a profound thank you for a wonderful book – Agincourt. Truly splendid, and the characters and dialogue were just brilliant (and the fact that a guy from Brooklyn actually used that last word is, quite frankly, praise enough.) On top of that, I have been wonderfully surprised that the Sharpe series from PBS is actually based on your books! Time to get buying because that Long Island Railroad commute is as fun as a death march without a book. Congratulation again on Agincourt. Semper fi, Dan Harnett Blue Point, NY
