As one of the most brilliant, creative minds of the twentieth century, C. S. Lewis crossed all literary, philosophical, and religious boundaries. His masterpieces have been studied by scholars, yet they are read and loved by children. This volume in the Leaders in Action series shows that his life was as compelling as his work, and why Lewis's influence continues to our day.
