Preserving the Legacy of C.S. Lewis

When illness forced C.S. Lewis, the celebrated author and Christian apologist, into a nursing home, he wanted his secretary to retrieve some books. "You know which two books you must bring me?" he asked. "Yes,"his secretary replied. The books were E.R. Eddison's "The Worm of Ouroboros" (1922), a heroic romance that Lewis absorbed as a young man, and "The Aeneid," Virgil's epic about the founding of ancient Rome.
