Lewis’ intro to the book and plea to read old books is GOLD. I have loved the opening chapters!
“The only palliative is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can be done only by reading old books. Not, of course, that there is any magic about the past. People were no cleverer then than we are now; they made as many mistakes as we. But not the same mistakes.”
