Dear Sir,
I must say that I was hesitant at purchasing your Fools and Mortals, since it seemed out of character when compared to what I was accustomed to reading from your collection of works.
I am on page 162 today and will probably finish it maybe this week if I have the time to do so. I am very pleased to say that reading this book has been an entertaining experience. I felt as though I had been plucked from my home in Sioux Falls, SD and swept across the sea to Elizabethan London and shoved face first into what is probably a very good representation of life, such as it was back then. We have been to London, the first time with a group of archaeologists, a geomorphologists and anthropologists on a trip assembled by a former Brit with British archaeology in his blood; a trip across England, beginning and ending in London. Of course, your perspective helped filled in the enormous space left before what is current life in England.
The second trip was with a husband and wife team of archaeologists who gave papers at University of York, followed by a cultural trip across Northern England and Southern Scotland ending in Edinborough.
Thank you very much for this enlightening experience; looking forward to finishing this masterpiece of literature.
Respectfully,
Lyle Parkes
