Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, the Isle of Man, Brittany, and
Galicia. This book draws on sources from throughout the Celtic

saints, and ballads) and presents the universal spiritual
principles at the foundation of the Celtic world view.
From the author of the new BIG BOOK OF CHRISTIAN MYSTICISM comes an
engaging look at how the principles and practices of Christian
mysticism are illustrated in C. S. Lewis's Narnia series.
Releasing to time with the third film in the blockbuster Narnia
series The Voyage of the Dawn Treader December 10, 2010!!
The Lion, The Mouse and The Dawn Treader shows the reader how
C. S. Lewis was guided by two "templates" in writing Dawn Treader:
first, an ancient Celtic folktale known as the immram, or wondrous
sea-voyage, in which great saints like Brendan the Navigator sought
to reach paradise itself. But on another level, Lewis also built
his adventure story around the traditional stages of the Christian
life: from initial resistance to God's grace, to discovering how
sin enslaves us and "turns us into dragons," to experiencing both
the relief found in Christ and the cleansing waters of baptism.
