Dear Mr. Cornwell,

I just want to thank you for the excelent books you wrote and that I had the pleasure to read. I am talking about the Sharpe’s adventures that took place, many of them, in my home country, Portugal. I love history and the way you write it seems I am sent back t that time.

The only thing I would like to ask is… Why this part of history? Why the Peninsular Wars?

It is an extremelly important part of Portuguese history and you write in a way that makes me proud of being a Portuguese.

Thank you for all the great quality time you gave me.

Best regards,

Pedro Graça
