Endorsements

“I love this book!  It is pure pleasure all the way through. Solomon Schmidt in his History Bites series aims to be as clear as he can be – and he is wonderfully successful.  When I was C. S. Lewis’s secretary, I congratulated him on writing perfectly clear prose.  It looks as though Solomon does the same. As I said, I love this book!” — Walter Hooper, C. S. Lewis’s personal secretary, literary advisor to the C. S. Lewis Estate, world-renowned Lewis scholar and author of C. S. Lewis: A Companion & Guide
