'From The Lost Letters Sent' - Memoirs From An Invisible Songwriter is a four-book series written about the life and times of Lord Chester L. Baldwin II (Lord Baldwin) as he went about creating his, 'Archive Series' of 38 albums, comprising over 320 songs and musical creations, recorded between 1985 and 2001.

All works were recorded and engineered in Lord Baldwin's bedroom, using a Tascam 4-track analog tape recorder, with Lord Baldwin performing and singing all the songs, playing all the instruments; guitars, harmonicas, pianos and keyboards and his challenges to recording and engineering all the finished products.

The books, 'From The Lost Letters Sent' - Memoirs From An Invisible Songwriter also documents all the poetry, (lyrics) to the songs as well as documenting Lord Baldwin's life and times through a series of memoirs that details what was going on in his life at the time, as a family man, and husband and father, as well as why it was he wrote the songs that he did, and maybe, sprinkled with added storylines here and there about his aspirations and feeling about his creations, his varied accomplishments, the disappointments and failures, as well as his ambitions, hopes and dreams as he was creating the albums.

There is also documentation on the creations and placements to all of the art to the 38 albums previously mentioned and documenting the lyrics and memoirs of songs, musical compositions and stories.

'Book TWO: 1992 - 1993' sheds light on Lord Baldwin's second nine albums; documenting the sixty-nine songs that were recorded between July of 1992 and May of 1993, as Lord Baldwin plays guitars, keyboards, pianos, harmonicas and all the other instruments as well as supplying all the voices to the recordings, ... continuing Lord Baldwin's epic passage into his writings and recordings and documents how his writings and his music evolved through his progression and lyrical and musical journey, ... a journey that Lord Baldwin is still traveling.

Lord Baldwin; singer-songwriter, Playwright, Keyboardist, Guitarist and Jazz Harmonica player. Emerging from the 60s rock era, has developed a distinctive and rather eclectic style that blends blues, jazz, folk and rock. In 1983, Lord Baldwin had a renaissance and revitalization to his songwriting and performing and from a renewed perspective and sense of value, after reevaluating priorities, realizing the blessings and strengths of his family and friends, his own special style began to surface; through his poetry and music he documented his life and times. As new songs began to flow, (even from within his dreams), Lord Baldwin documented the words, (poetry-lyrics), while they were fresh in his mind and he mentally documented the music that would eventually accompany the lyrics. In 1989 or was it 1990, Lord Baldwin purchased a 4-track, Tascam Cassette Recorder, and immediately began to record. He then took the songs and engineered them into albums, each 45 minutes, so as to fill each side of a 90-minute cassette. From that simple beginning, Lord Baldwin continued his analog recordings for the next ten years (1991 to 2001), into what has come to be known as, The Archive Series which is comprised of thirty-eight albums as well as six experimentation instrumentals and other compositions. This here is the SECOND BOOK of Lord Baldwin's anthological works; From The Lost Letters Sent - Book TWO: 1992 - 1993 - Memoirs From An Invisible SongwriterDocumenting the lyrics and memoirs of songs, musical compositions and stories from his second nine albums; documenting the sixty-nine songs that were recorded between July of 1992 and May of 1993, and of course, Lord Baldwin plays guitars, keyboards, pianos, harmonicas and all the other instruments as well as supplying all the voices to the recordings.For the curious follower of Lord Baldwin music, this book can be also used as a companion while he or she examines an album, (presently streaming worldwide), they can also gain insightful stories that may accompany the songs they are listening to, and be able to read the lyrics as well as. Lord Baldwin's heart-felt thanks go out to you for your interest and he wishes you well as you embark on this epic new journey.
