28th August 2018
I’m writing to you about the book. Because I know you are in two minds about the publication of the story I thought I would write to set out what I told you the other day. I explained my reasons why the book should be published and when you thought about it, you agreed with me. So in the future if you have some doubts you can look at this letter and be reminded of those reasons.

As you know there are still people in the world who deny that the holocaust happened. Through publishing the book we will be adding to the evidence that the Jews were indeed persecuted and over six million of them were murdered by the Germans. The Holocaust needs to be remembered and people need to be reminded that it happened. The book which is going to be called “War and Love” will bring new evidence of the Holocaust to an audience new and old.
