Review # 1 was written on 2017-03-04 00:00:00 Franklin D Mills Well back to history . This book was written in 1982 - love searching and finding books in the small used bookstores in Maine. This was a very readable history of the development of the English Gentleman from the middle ages to the 20th century. Anyone who is interested in TV drama Downton Abbey will enjoy this book and find enjoyable how each era in history put its own stamp on the "gentleman" .

Review # 2 was written on 2012-04-23 00:00:00 James Killebrew One of the best studies I've ever read of C.S. Lewis's social and ethical thought. It's a very meaty, meditative analysis that at the same time is accessible and readable -- quite an accomplishment. Meilaender argues that Lewis's central premise in his theological works is: "All human beings are made for life in community with God (and, thereby, with one another)." This vision is brilliantly illustrated in this book, and I'd recommend this study to anyone who wants to look more deeply into C.S. Lewis's thought.
