C.S. Lewis wrote many great words, but not everything you see with his name on it is from the famed author of the Narnia books. Seventy-five quotations are presented that have an association in one way or another with a host of names, including: Ryan Seacrest, Anthony Hopkins, Max Lucado, Rick Warren, and Tim Allen!
Learn the three most common ways Lewis is misrepresented:
1.Falsely Attributed Quotes: Expressions that are NOT by him.
2.Paraphrased: Words that are ALMOST what he said.
3.Out of Context: Material he wrote, but are NOT QUITE what he believed.
This book doesn't stop there. Also discover what Lewis actually said that is related to the presented misquotes. Those new to Lewis and the more serious reader of his works will grow in their appreciation of a writer that is not only quotable, but obviously misquotable!
