Dear Mr. Cornwell, I’ve been an assiduous reader of several of your books and, each on it’s own timeline, are marvellous and really take me to those places, smells and everything you, so well describe. What made me address you wasn’t only the will to express my deepest gratitude for everything you’ve showed me through your books but also to ask for your help. I’ve now started to buy the Sharpe collection but I’m confused whether I should start reading them from the first book you wrote or by chronological order. I’m sorry it seems a bit of a daft question but I think it’s a pertinent one. I wish you all the best and a long and prosperous life with health and surrounded by people that love you. With my deepest respect David A. Caballero
