Excerpt from A Memorial Sketch of Mrs. Richard H. Lewis Mrs. Lewis's life may be said to have been a fortunate one, exceptionally blessed in parents, brothers, husband, children, and friends. She was gifted from her cradle with beauty and winning grace; she was surrounded with the advantages conferred by wealth, social position, and cultivation, and she grew up among the refining influences of a beautiful and well-ordered home, herself its fairest flower, its most attractive ornament. Far above all other blessings must be reckoned this: that she was the child of Christian parents, who, while sparing no pains to fit her for the duties of this life, were careful to lead her early in the Way Everlasting. Foreseeing the special dangers and temptations that awaited a girl so beautiful and so attractive, her devoted mother endeavored from childhood to develop in her the graces of humility and unselfishness. By these she was distinguished through life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Alonzo Lewis Many of the following poems were written at an early age, and all of them without any design for publication. In pre senting them to his friends the author considers that no apol ogy is necessary; but to prevent the imputation of obtruding them upon public notice, it is proper to observe, that they are not published, but only printed for the subscribers. The author may therefore be permitted to expect that they will escape the animadversions of ungenerous criticism.

Now a USA TODAY and Publishers Weekly bestseller! Meet the brilliant writer, fiercely independent mother, and passionate woman who captured the heart of C.S. Lewis and inspired the books that still enchant and change us today. When poet and writer Joy Davidman began writing letters to C. S. Lewis—known as Jack—she was looking for spiritual answers, not love. Love, after all, wasn’t holding together her crumbling marriage. Everything about New Yorker Joy seemed ill-matched for an Oxford professor and the beloved writer of The Chronicles of Narnia, yet their minds bonded over their letters. Embarking on the adventure of her life, Joy traveled from America to England and back again, facing heartbreak and poverty, discovering friendship and faith, and against all odds, found a love that even the threat of death couldn’t destroy. In this masterful exploration of one of the greatest love stories of modern times, we meet a brilliant writer, a fiercely independent mother, and a passionate woman who changed the life of this respected author and inspired books that still enchant us and change us. Joy lived at a time when women weren’t meant to have a voice—and yet her love for Jack gave them both voices they didn’t know they had. At once a fascinating historical novel and a glimpse into a writer’s life, Becoming Mrs. Lewis is above all a love story—a love of literature and ideas and a love between a husband and wife that, in the end, was not impossible at all. Praise for Becoming Mrs. Lewis: “Becoming Mrs. Lewis deftly explores the life and work of Joy Davidman, a bold and brilliant woman who is long overdue her time in the spotlight. Carefully researched. Beautifully written. Deeply romantic. Fiercely intelligent. It is both a meditation on marriage and a whopping grand adventure. Touching, tender, and triumphant, this is a love story for the ages.” —Ariel Lawhon, New York Times bestselling author of I Was Anastasia “Patti Callahan Henry breathes wondrous fresh life into one of the greatest literary love stories of all time . . . The result is a deeply moving story about love and loss that is transformative and magical.” —Pam Jenoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Orphan’s Tale “It's novel. And it's a very good one. . . extraordinarily accurate. . . more accurate than most biographical essays that have been written about my mother.” —Douglas Gresham, son of Joy Davidman, wife of C.S. Lewis This expanded edition includes: Map of Oxford Expanded discussion guide with 20+ questions for book clubs Timeline of Jack's and Joy's Lives Joy's (imagined) letter to Jack 10 Things You May Not Know About Joy Davidman and C. S. Lewis's Love Story Behind-the-scenes essay: Oxford—The City
