Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I have enjoyed your work for many years and often find the second and third reads just as enjoyable as the first. I too have an interest in history, and my mother who enjoyed recounting her days as a cryptographer in the RAF during WWII likely sparked this pastime. I do remember her talking about Sir Richard Francis Burton and his many exploits during the Victorian Age. Let me preface that I have no interest in witing a book, but would like to get your opinion as to why there hasn’t been more media interest in this fascinating explorer, geographer, and adventurer.  Sincerely

Bruce D. Worf, MD
