I picked up “The Burning Land” today and just finished the first four chapters. Seeing a boy of ten live and grow in the time period and places I have devoted myself to studying has been a personal joy. I thank you for your illumination of the subject. Also, heard you on NPR today and I think Poitiers is right up your alley. Ever thought of writing about Chalon? I read William Dietricht’s “The Scourge of God” in which he explored the matter wonderfully, however, I would sincerely enjoy reading your take on the events surrounding the conflict on the Catalaunian Plains. Thanks for all the entertainment, Joe Wilson
