In this intimate, candid, and sometimes surprising community biography of the celebrated author and Christian apologist, twenty-two men and women who knew C.S. Lewis - as teacher, colleague, friend - offer their reminiscences and impressions of the complex man behind the critical and academic acclaim. Through their recollections (most of which were specially commissioned for this volume), we see Jack Lewis dazzling Oxford as he takes on atheists, materialists, and a host of other challengers. Most poignantly, perhaps, we see him in everyday settings: striding up and down the platform at a railway station, presiding over leisurely dinners with students, and expounding on the virtues of the pub.
