"The book is well-structured and written, engaging to both the layperson and the academic with an interest in LewisIt paints an excellent portrait of Lewis as a medievalist and an appreciator of the period. Boenig’s conclusions and analyses are fruitful to further scholarship on Lewis’s relationship to the medieval period and are interesting in themselves, making this volume well worth reading." - Jim Helfers Principles/Navigations
