C.S. Lewis and the Catholic Church By Joseph Pearce
C. S. Lewis, the great British novelist and Christian apologist, has been credited by many - including the author - for aiding their journey to the Catholic Church. For this reason, it is often perplexing that Lewis himself never became Catholic. In C. S. Lewis and the Catholic Church, Joseph Pearce delves into Lewis's life, writings, and spiritual influences to shed light on the matter. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, this book asks the question: Was C. S. Lewis on the path to Rome?
