Dear Sir,

I wanted to send you a small greeting and say thank you for your books.  i am in my mid 50s now and I have been reading your books for some time now.  The characters you have created and the history you have taught has been greatly appreciated.  In my younger days as a soldier, sitting in some distance place far from home.  It has been a God send and a saving grace to have a copy or three of your books with me.  So thank you again for your dedication to your work and for the wonderful characters you have created, Harper, Sharpe, Father Biocca and so many more.  Thank you.
