Henry | 3 comments A collection of 100+ of fictional letters written to key people in history. The letters are designed to both entertain the reader (often through humour, sometimes through provoking reflection) and to highlight the contribution of the recipient to society. It is all about illuminating the recipients themselves, highlighting the idiosyncrasies between their world and our modern perceptions, and even occasionally making suggestions that might influence some of the achievements they will go on to make. What’s the connection between Boudica and JK Rowling? Where did Walt Disney get some of his ideas from? Who was Nettie Honeyball? We have it covered!
