Bernard I have now read both the Saxon Stories and The Grail Quest and it is not in my nature to contact authors, but I would like to thank you. Not only for having brought us your fantastic tales, but for the historical knowledge you have given your readers. We Americans cannot claim to have been well schooled in history. Your novels have opened up the world of the European past, the events, lifestyles and the impact of the church. I’d like to thank you and let you know that you have inspired me to continue reading your work and that of others who weave some fact into enjoyable fiction. Cecil Alexander
