• Yes, it looks as if the 10th edition was from 1919. Perhaps this offer is honoring the "Centennial" of it's publishing. Consider how many quotations have been made in the last 100 years that we often use. I must think long and hard on this one. (The 4 stars is for the book, not the offer.)
    1. I have the print copy of this book and am currently contemplating the Logos version. While Christian history is an area few take delight in studying, we sometimes forget, this is our heritage and while we may be the tip of the branch, there is a lot of travel from the root of our particular denominational faith. Mark Noll does an excellent work in making the narrative of North American Christianity far more engaging than either Canadian or American history as taught in schools today. Even if this is not your favorite are of study, this is a book that really belongs in your library. Do you truly know what events this continent has provided to bring you to where you are now?
      1. Getting tired of all the medieval themed movies and books, most of which have been so modified that little or none of the correct time period exists within? Had enough of Lord of the Rings reruns (Note: I did not say re-reads. I love the works of J.R.R.) How about a trip to a planet far away where the landscape is almost indescribable? Where people of different regions seem to have odd ways of thinking about and dealing with each other, at least we think so at first glance. This trilogy is without a doubt C.S. Lewis' best kept secret. Yes, Chronicles is a great work and, for its mass, tells a tale that could never be contained within three short paperback books. However the Perelandra Space Trilogy provides the reader with mind images and philosophical paths to travel that even the Narnians have never seen. This is an excellent set of books to enjoy in any format, although my favorite is listening to the unabridged audio book while reading the text. So, if you like Star Trek more than Star Wars, 2001: A Space Odyssey more than Hitchhiker's Guide, it doesn't matter, you will love reading these books. By the way, this applies to the books Perelandra and That Hideous Strength as well. (Note: That Hideous Strength suffers a bit from Lewis' personal thoughts about the war going on at the time.)
        1. This is a mandatory text in Dr. Wayne Grudem's Theology 501 class (well, in addition to his own Systematic Theology text). After reading it, I can see why. Essential for anyone entering seminary.
