He wrote: "Delighted that The White Ship fundraising talk at @AlthorpHouse on Friday afternoon raised £12,000 for the #BritishRedCross #thewhiteship."
The White Ship is the talented author's latest book, and it tells the true story of the sinking of the titular vessel in 1120 and how that altered the course of British history.
