Inkling, Historian, Soldier, and Brother
A Life of Warren Hamilton Lewis"King combines careful research, captivating prose, and frequent literary references to weave his way through the life of the sometimes maligned and often misunderstood founding member of the Inklings." —Journal of Inklings Studies "Here is an important and valuable book on an unexpectedly neglected figure in C.S. Lewis and Inklings studies." —Mythlore "Long regarded as a thorough and meticulous scholar, Don King has left no manuscript or stone unturned in his effort to bring to life one of the most interesting of the Inklings. …. King not only uncovers the primary resources that bring us close to the life of Warnie Lewis, but he also has the skill to weigh them and balance them against each other to give a critical picture of Warren Lewis independent of the brother he so loved. .... This book provides a much-needed picture of the life of a man who had a significant literary career on his own and played a major role in the dynamics of the Inklings." —Christian Scholar's Review “In the last two decades, availability of scholarship on Warnie Lewis has changed significantly for the better, largely due to the tireless archival research and writing of Don W. King, which are now crowned by his biography of the ‘other Lewis brother.’ …. In Inkling, Historian, Soldier, and Brother: A Life of Warren Hamilton Lewis, King demonstrates his mastery of the extensive Lewis corpus, both published and unpublished, as well as his skill in synthesizing a vast quantity of material in a manner that is readable and scholarly at the same time." —VII: Journal of the Marion E. Wade Center “A consistently interesting and well-paced life story of Warren Lewis. …. To bring Warren out of the shadows, Don King’s biography draws upon a wide range of sources, especially published and unpublished passages from his diary.” —CSL: The Bulletin of the New York C.S. Lewis Society “Don W. King offers a consistently fact-filled and engaging account of Warren Lewis’s life and times, providing as well an illuminating social history of 20th-century Britain. This work allows readers to view C. S. Lewis’s life from a new perspective. Warren’s story deserves to be told, and Don King is just the right person to tell that story.” —David C. Downing, codirector, Marion E. Wade Center, Wheaton College “King gives us a richly detailed life of Warnie Lewis to make the case that he is interesting not only because of his famous brother but in his own right. We see Warnie with C. S. Lewis growing up, living at the Kilns, and as Inklings, but we also clearly see the complexities of Warnie himself, proud soldier and self-taught historian who yet was psychologically dependent on his brother and tragically diminished by alcoholism.” —John Rosegrant, author of Tolkien, Enchantment, and Loss: Steps on the Developmental Journey “King offers a treasure trove of new information and at the same time succeeds admirably in engaging both the expert and someone new to Lewis studies. This book is a must have for any serious Lewis collection—as much for its insights and commentary as for the information it provides.” —Devin Brown, professor of English, Asbury University, and author of A Life Observed: A Spiritual Biography of C. S. Lewis

All My Road Before Me
A repackaged edition of the revered author’s diary from his early twenties—a thought-provoking work that reveals his earliest thinking about war, atheism, religion, and humanity. While serving his country in the Great War, C. S. Lewis’ the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, and Christian apologist—made a pact with a close friend and fellow soldier. If one of them died, the survivor would take care of his family—a promise Lewis honored. Developing a deep friendship with his fallen friend’s mother, Jane King Moore, Lewis moved into the Moore household after the war. Returning to Oxford, the twenty-three-year old Lewis—then a staunch atheist—struggled to adapt to life in post-war England. Eager to help the tormented young man, Jane encouraged him keep a diary of his day-to-day life. Those reflections are collected in this illuminating journal. Covering five remarkable years in Lewis's life, All My Road Before Me charts the inspirations and intellectual and spiritual development of a man whose theology and writing—including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics—has had immense influence on the Christian world.

The Spiritual Journey of GriefA Grief Observed is C.S. Lewis's honest reflection on the fundamental issues of life, death, and faith in the midst of loss. Written after his wife's tragic death as a way of surviving the "mad midnight moments," A Grief Observed is an unflinchingly truthful account of how loss can lead even a stalwart believer to lose all sense of meaning in the universe, and how he can gradually regain his bearings.

A Grief Observed
"I am grateful to Lewis for having the courage to yell, to doubt, to kick at God in angry violence. This is a part of a healthy grief which is not often encouraged." - Madeline L'Engle? Written with love, humility, and faith, this brief but poignant volume was first published under a pseudonym, as it was considered too raw. Written moment-to-moment as Lewis processed the loss of his wife to cancer, this is more than a mere book on grief, but a visceral hand outstretched in the darkness, a reluctant guide through the "mad midnight moments" of mourning and loss. ? Key learnings that Lewis discusses are: · Pain is instrumental in the process of spiritual growth · Through hardship we often gain the best wisdom · Memories are treasures that will comfort you tomorrow This work inspired the award-winning film The Shadowlands, starring Anthony Hopkins.? Writing A Grief Observed as "a defense against total collapse, a safety valve," he came to recognize that "bereavement is a universal and integral part of our experience of love." A Grief Observed reminds us that, “Grief is like a long valley, a winding valley where any bend may reveal a totally new landscape.”
