History of The York Trilogy

Comment:

Hello from York, Yorkshire.
My wife and I were looking at some old photographs and among them were letters and cards from you to my father. George (Stan) pawson, who ferried you about for you to collect facts for your York trilogy.
Glad to see that you are still very active on the literary front, and wish you continued success with you work.
Best wishes,
BARRIE and GILLIAN PAWSON

How lovely to hear from you!   Your father was such a gentleman, and we were so glad that we had chosen him to take us around.  I’m not sure I told him what I was writing about, because I didn’t want him to take us to places that might not have interested me, so we pretty much stuck to the list I had created. I loved his finding the troop of travelers out in the countryside.  But just before the trip was concluded, I think I mentioned the ghosts in the treasurer’s building.  And he showed up that night with a book about the ghosts of York, which was so perfect for what I needed.  I remember him with deep affection.  Thank you so much for getting in contact with me.
