Letters of Note is a collection of over one hundred of the world`s most entertaining, inspiring and unusual letters, based on the seismically popular website of the same name - an online museum of correspondence visited by over 70 million people. From Virginia Woolf`s heart-breaking suicide letter, to Queen Elizabeth II`s recipe for drop scones sent to President Eisenhower; from the first recorded use of the expression `OMG` in a letter to Winston Churchill, to Gandhi`s appeal for calm to Hitler; and from Iggy Pop`s beautiful letter of advice to a troubled young fan, to Leonardo da Vinci`s remarkable job application letter, Letters of Note is a celebration of the power of written correspondence which captures the humour, seriousness, sadness and brilliance that make up all of our lives.  a0  atext  aunmediated  avolume  2lcccBKajpascuab2019-09-04 15:02:50djpascuae2019-09-04 15:02:50  a11416  c11318d11318  00102ddc4070aHEDbHEDcHEDd2025-12-21oCIR 808.86 Us3l 2016pHED6226r2026-06-02 00:00:00w2025-12-21yBK
