I have read the Mere Christianity part of the two-book volume. C.S. Lewis is at his finest in this book. Originally delivered as a series of radio talks to servicemen in England just after WWII, the text is an edited transcription of these broadcasts. As such, it is divided up into many little chapters of about six pages each (about 20 minutes of airtime). Relaying his thoughts in a conversational manner, Prof. Lewis starts out at the beginning assuming the reader/listener has no knowledge or belief in Christianity at all. He then progresses logically through reasons to believe, giving examples from the recent war, philosophy, history, and his own journey from atheism to Christianity. This book should be in every Christian's personal library.
