Jeanie

Jeanie asked Charles Todd:

I am interested in Ian's love of O. A. Manning's poetry. Wikipedia shows O.A. Manning to have been a real writer and poet, though too young to have published anything for Ian to have carried with him into battle. I found an interview acknowledging that the poetry 'quoted' in the novels was written by Charles Todd, but will you share the story of your choosing Manning as the beloved author/poet? Thanks!

Betsy

Betsy asked Charles Todd:

I love your series, particularly since I am very interested in WWI. I hope you won't be in a hurry to find a wife for Ian. As you said, his PTSD is not something that is going to miraculously go away. Is there any chance you might give us some more information on his war service, besides the tragedy involving Hamish? Those four years had to have a profound effect on anyone who served.
