Mr. Cornwell,

I love your books, you’ve ruined me for many other books! I find myself getting bored with other books and the next thing I know, I am re-reading Sharpe again!

In my re-reading, I’ve just finished the Grail Quest Books again and am now re-reading Agincourt.  A few times I’ve noticed the characters refer to “shooting” their bows.  I was wondering if that really is the term they used?  I guess I think of the term referring to firearms, but maybe I’m wrong and it began with archery.  I imagine there is a lot of modernizing of language to make it more accessible to modern readers.

Thank you for the wonderful books, I’ve spent so many hours with them and look forward to many more!

Regards,
