Hi, I was listening to NPR today (1 Feb) and heard you talking about your new book dealing with the history of King Alfred the Great. The fact that someone is finally telling the story of Alfred and his children is very exciting to me. When I was in high school one of my history teachers told us about Alfred the Great, and ever since then I have done some research on him, and even gave on informative speech on his life in one of my college classes last semester. I just wanted to write to you and say how much I appreciate you writing about my favorite part of English history. I look foward to reading your future works.
