Deasr Mr Rowdon, can't write you a letter as I only have your e mail
address.
have now read your book and had a report on it. Iti is a very powerful
story and the way you tell it simply is most affecting. That whole
period of the war - going up through Italy, the rest and recuperation in
Cairo and Palestine and the return to the war front is very well written and
evoked. You well describe the everyday aspects of life, how it is affecting
you and the way you and the other soldiers had to grow up overnight.
In the end sadly we don't think we can take it on though. We already have a
Nert
number of WW2 books on our list and there is only so much room. I am sure
though that someone will like it and suggest you approach other
publishers. Get hold of a copy of The Artists and Writers Yearbook. Other
OtY
who
bigger publishers
may be interested are Macmillan; Transworld,
harperCollins. Smaller companies include Spellmount, Pen and Sword.
wish you the bet of luck and thank you for sending it in. Can you send me
your address SO I can return the manuscript to you. Yours, Eleo Gordon
