Overview
A tribute to a great man, an important and interesting writer, an inspiring teacher, and a friend some will not likely find again.
Roger Lancelyn Green and Walter Hooper wrote a memorable biography about their pal, C.S. Lewis. "...We have sought to tell his story as best we could, to lay before them as clear a picture as we could capture of his everyday life, of his friendships and interests, and how he came to write the books which are still claiming a wide and appreciative public in many parts of the world..." C.S. Lewis tells the fascinating life story of one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century by those who knew him personally.
You'll learn more about:
- Lewis's childhood, being raised in a Christian household and how he lost his faith in his teenage years.
- How his faith influenced his writings and epic titles such as: Mere Christianity, A Grief Observed, and The Screwtape Letters.
- The Chronicles of Narnia and the thousands of letters he wrote to family, friends, and strangers.
- Joy, the love of his life.
- Lewis's last days and the divine impact he had on others.
This biography is for longtime fans of C.S. Lewis and readers being introduced to Lewis's works for the first time. Unlike other biographies on Lewis, this book doesn't lean into a specific season or book Lewis has written. Green and Hooper provide a deeply authentic and intentional look into the life of a brilliant writer who will forever be cherished. This is the resource everyone goes to when they want to learn more about the great C.S. Lewis.
