Dear Bernard,
For your fans, for whom you cannot write fast enough, I have the following recommendations: Any of the books (Fiction & non-fiction) written by explorer Tim Severin, but particularly the Viking series starting with Odinn’s Child. Captain Scott written by Ranulph Fiennes, which prompted me to read a whole raft of books about Scott and Shackleton. My Early Life by Winston Churchill, an absolutely astonishing autobiography, and possibly all true. Finally (a bit of a surprise this one) Paths of Glory by Jeffrey Archer, a fictional account of George Mallory’s 1924 Everest expedition.
My thanks again for all your work.
Paul Thomas
