The C.S. Lewis Chronicles (Advance Uncorrected Proof)
Colin Duriez. Foreword by Brian Sibley.
Published by BlueBridge, 2005.
This is an **advance uncorrected proof** of *The C.S. Lewis Chronicles* by Colin Duriez, distributed ahead of the October 2005 release. The book is bound in plain cream-colored wrappers and labeled “Uncorrected Proof” on both covers. It contains a pre-publication layout and typesetting.
Condition is Very Good — minor edgewear, some faint toning to the outer wraps, interior clean and unmarked. A tight, solid copy.
Colin Duriez, a respected Lewis scholar, offers a richly detailed, day-by-day account of the author's life, emphasizing personal anecdotes, relationships (including with J.R.R. Tolkien), and creative milestones. The work is structured chronologically and includes fascinating entries on Lewis’s Oxford years, wartime service, and the writing of *The Chronicles of Narnia*.
Uncorrected proofs related to *C.S. Lewis* are very rarely available — this one, with the added scholarly appeal of Duriez and a foreword by Tolkien biographer Brian Sibley, is especially collectible.
An increasingly scarce piece of Lewis ephemera — perfect for Inklings collectors.
Distributed by Meryl Zegarek Public Relations (NY), this proof was issued in limited quantities and not for sale.
