About the Author

C S Lewis was a Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College, Oxford from 1925 to 1954 when he became Professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. For many years an atheist, his conversion to Christianity in 1929 was a catalyst for his development as a Christian writer.
