He has also written a sequel to Lord Foulgrin's Letters entitled The Ishbane Conspiracy, which he co-authored in 2001 with his two daughters, Karina and Angela Alcorn (now both grown and married). In November 2009, Alcorn signed an ecumenical statement known as the Manhattan Declaration calling on Evangelicals, Catholics and Orthodox not to comply with rules and laws permitting abortion, same-sex marriage and other matters that go against their religious consciences.
