4.0

For the price of a Dover book, you can feel as if you have gone back in time to the 1913-1914 school year at Cambridge as you read Arthur Quiller-Couch's lectures On the Art of Writing. What a treat!

If you are a G. K. Chesterton fan, the last chapter is fun.

I have just read a sermon by CS Lewis that was a perfect read as I finished the lectures . It is titled "Learning in War-Time", preached in the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Oxford in the fall of 1939. It is published in the book, The Weight of Glory.
