Editions Used
Of the nearly ten million copies of the Narnia volumes that have been sold to date, about three-fourths have been in the Macmillan paperback edition. That edition seemed, therefore, the most convenient for the greatest number of readers as a source of quotations in this book.

Likewise I have used the Macmillan paperback edition of Mere Christianity (1952; reprinted New York: Macmillan, [ß p. ix] 1960). Page references for these books are included within parentheses in the text. For readers who wish to locate quotations in other editions, a table for converting page references to chapter numbers is provided at p. 148. References to all other books by Lewis are to the first edition. [ß p. x]
