Summary

George MacDonald, nineteenth-century Scottish novelist and poet, was reintroduced to twentieth-century readers by C. S. Lewis, whose reading of MacDonald's Phantastes triggered his own spiritual awakening. Later in the century, Michael Phillips' vision, foresight, and editorial expertise ignited the MacDonald renaissance that we know today.
