by Colin Duriez (Author)
C S Lewis (1898-1963) is known around the world for his beloved and classic series The Chronicles of Narnia , which includes The Lion , the Witch and the Wardrobe . One of the greatest writers and thinkers of modern times, he was an eminent scholar, who taught at Oxford and Cambridge, and was a close friend of J R R Tolkien. The C S Lewis Chronicles takes a refreshingly different and highly illuminating approach to the life, thought and work of this extraordinary man. It is both a greatly accessible and authoritative biography of Lewis, reconstructing his life and times in minute chronological detail - as well as an utterly intriguing and entertaining collection of little-known Lewis and Narnia miscellany and trivia. A biography like no other, it provides invaluable and detailed insight into Lewis' remarkable personal, creative, spiritual and intellectual life and legacy, and is the perfect companion for every reader who cherishes his timeless work.
