# Letters of Note: Correspondence Deserving of a Wider Audience - Hardcover

by **Shaun Usher** (Compiled by)

_Letters of Note_, the book based on the beloved website of the same name, became an instant classic on publication in 2013, selling hundreds of thousands of copies. This new edition sees the collection of the world's most entertaining, inspiring and unusual letters updated with fourteen riveting new missives and a new introduction from curator Shaun Usher.

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.
