I have an interest in ohio history, aspeacialy frontiersmen. The accounts represented in this book are the most accurate Ive read anywhere. The accounts of Lewis Wetzle are the most consistant ive been able to find anywhere. it makes very good reading and I use it for references as well. If you want to learn more about actual events and not just made up story lines then this is the book for you!

Stephan Schofield did a great deal of work in garnering this collection of interviews, essays, and letters. Most of the chapters are memoirs by those who knew Lewis, either as pupils or as colleagues. Several intriguing anecdotes emerge from these pieces, and the book is balanced since the contributors are quite candid, giving Lewis both praise and censure. For those interested in C.S. Lewis, this is fun to read. Unfortunately, Bridge Publishers did a poor job putting the book together, with numerous typos, editing errors (such as combining letters from two people into one), and small type. Still, if you can look past these pecadillos, this is an enjoyable book.
