In Depth:  Mark Sage

Dear Sir,

Your article on André Trocmé is particularly timely. As I walked into Waterstones this week, their book of the month caught my eye... Village of Secrets: Defying the Nazis in Vichy France.* It tells the story of the heroism of the small Christian communities in and around the Cevennes who gave sanctuary to the fleeing Jews and the terrible price they paid when eventually caught. I see from the index that there are numerous references to André Trocmé in the book.

Dear Sir,

What an offensive diatribe en readers were treated to in the May issue by David Robertson of Dundee. I happen to have spent time with Steve Chalke and character assassination does no credit to en, quite apart from being wide of the mark.
