Mr. Cornwell, I am going to be lame for a moment and just tell you that I LOVE the Saxon Stories. I am an American fascinated with British history. It started when I read about Harold Godwinson and William the Bastard in an old history book. But I have been searching for a good informative historical read and you are the answer to many prayers! Hehe, thanks again. Your biggest fan in the U.S Scott Sylvester
