Subject: new fan, totally impressed

Dear Diana,
I was introduced to your books by my sister in law last Christmas. I have read and bought them all since then, so I have spent the year in your amazing imagination. Thanks! After reading Outlandish Companion, I was stunned that you had never even been to Scotland before writing Outlander. What a fantastic job you did of making us feel that we were there.
I actually have been just to Edinburgh, but I Outlander to a neighbor who went to Scotland with her family every summer growing up. She said you were "dead on" about Scotland. I wanted to pass on the well deserved praise.
I also thought you might be interested in a book I have seen (from behind a glass case only) in an antique store here in Dallas. Its called The Scottish Chiefs. Its is by Jane Porter and illustrated by NC Wyeth!
Here's the thing- on the cover is a handsome man, broad of chest, head and shoulders above the others, with a long, knife edged nose and slanted blue eyes. Amazing huh? His hair is blonde but it is long and fair. I wish I could buy it and give it to you as a gift, but I haven't even got the guts to ask how much it is, yet!

Thanks for the joy your hard work has brought to so many!
Sincerely,
Susie James, 40
