Amidst all the blood and gore of the Peninsular Campaign, this novella (Sharpe's Christmas) was a wonderful bon-bon for your readers. It amazes me how you can craft such wonderful stories within an increasingly-constricted  (as you fill in the gaps, there is only so much that you can do with the few remaining interstices) historical framework.

Mr Cornwell,
I've just finished your book "Azincourt" and in first, I would like to thank you for this magnific lesson of history so well written...
I must confess you that I am french, and that I bought this book for a particular reason : Le Duc d'Orléans. I am musician and you may be know a french composer called Claude Debussy. In 1904, he wrote three songs for choir on poems written by Charles d'Orléans when he was prisoner in England after the battle of Azincourt. These are called "Dieu ! Qu'il la fait bon regarder" in which the poet talks about the France that he was able to see early in the morning when the sun was climbing up. The second "Quand j'ai ouy le tambourin", and the last "Hyver, vois n'estes qu'un vilain".
It's amazing how horror (in this case horror of war) can give life to beauty (in this case, the music of Claude Debussy)...
With many king regards,
Bruno Habert

Dear Bernard
Just a link  to a documentary on the war of 1812  that might be of interest to you and others on here. One previous poster asked about Night fights and although rare Lundys Lane was one and equals Albuera and Waterloo in carnage (if not in size)

Please, please, please write some more thrillers - they are just fantastic, so well crafted!    I was very sorry that you state that you are not intending to write any more (just yet)  but there are so many of us who love this genre - but not many writers of your quality!

The fight between Arthur and Owain, and the events just before and after it, was so great, that although I really enjoy reading your other work (including Sharpe) I needed to stop and applaud that one section of "The Winter King."  In a humble way, my father, also named Arthur, could have been like that.  He was fond of cats, hated cruelty, and also liked little girls.  Bravo, Mr. Cornwell.

Hello Bernard,

I just wanted to write a quick note and say thank you. I grew up reading your books at boarding school in England. I saw the Sharpe series on TV. I was engrossed each and every time your characters marched into my life. I hope to introduce my two young boys to the world of Sharpe, when they are old enough, so they too can peer into the world of captivating and informing literature as I did.

Sincerely,
Dan Thorogood.
