About This Item

London: Geoffrey Bles, 1947. 1st. hardback. Very good, 1st edition, no d/j, green clothbound boards, fading at edges/spine, gilt spine titling, text block firm, pages tight and unmarked, some foxing on edges and endpapers.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). The central miracle asserted by Christians is the Incarnation. They say that God became Man. Every other miracle prepares the way for this, or results from this.Õ This is the key statement of ÔMiraclesÕ, in which C. S. Lewis shows that a Christian must not only accept but rejoice in miracles as a testimony of the unique personal involvement of God in his creation. Using his characteristic lucidity and wit to develop his argument, Lewis challenges the rationalists, agnostics and deists on their own grounds and provides a poetic and joyous affirmation that miracles really do occur in our everyday lives.
