Dear Mr. Cornwell: I just finished reading The Starbuck Chronicles; Wow, I’m going to take a trip out to western Maryland and visit Manassas and Antietam. I’ve been to Gettysburg and ended up staying three days studying the history. The Starbuck Chronicles have stirred my interest in the Great U.S. Civil War once more to want to study the history. I have read all the Sharpe books, including the short stories, the Thrillers, Redcoat, and I started Gallows Thief but stopped shortly into the book since it was to distressful. Maybe I’ll start it again another day. I’m going to start reading the Arthur Books next. I sure would like to see Nate Starbuck come back in another series of the Starbuck Chronicles. There is a lot of unfinished business and stories to be told about Nate. It would make a great TV series too. Thank you sincerely for giving me many hours of joy and adventure reading your books. There is nothing better then to sail on the Chesapeake Bay and have a Bernard Cornwell novel along to read once we drop the hook and enjoy a glass of wine.
