A collection of essays intended to be presented to Charles Williams, but he died before they could be given to him. A magnificent collection of essays by Lewis, Tolkien, Sayers, Barfield, Mathew, and "Warnie" Lewis. A must read for all lovers of the Inklings. A Reader's Corner Highly Recommended Read.

Contains an interesting essay in which Tolkien reflects on fairy-stories and 'fantasy'. This gets referenced by a lot of people who talk about 'fantasy literature' as a genre and is an interesting read.

This is a miscellaneous collection of essays of varying degrees of interest. While I appreciated most of them, I suspect this will be a bit more of a niche read for most people. The Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, and Barfield essays in the middle of the book are especially worth reading.
