Dear Mr Irving

I wonder if I could possibly come and see you.

I've become interested in the various "bans" to which you are subject - in Europe and elsewhere. The BBC and a number of other European broadcasters have comissioned me to make a series dealing wtih this question.

Broadly speaking, my own position is the one adopted by Christopher Hitchens in his VANITY FAIR piece. But I would like to talk to you in much greater detail about your own views on the matter - and your experience.

Could we perhaps meet for lunch?

Yours sincerely

Nicholas Fraser

Dear David

Thanks very much for seeing me. I forgot to ask for the dossier you found in Canada. But I feel I need to do a great deal more reading before seeing you again.

Yours sincerely
