The Wonderful Works of George MacDonald "I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continuously close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself...I have never concealed the fact that I regarded him as my master; indeed, I fancy I have never written a book in which I did not quote from him." –C.S. Lewis Sir Gibbie Donal Grant Robert Falconer Malcolm Castle Warlock Original Scots side-by-side English Translation ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Illustrated ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Insightful Introduction ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ The ONLY editions of MacDonald's novels featuring English translations of all Scots dialogue side-by-side with the complete original text. Illustrated and with insightful introductions. "Finally! For decades people have been asking me where to turn if they want to read MacDonald's original Scottish novels, yet struggle with the sections written in dialect. Thanks to this labor of love by Scotsman David Jack, MacDonald 'in the original' is now accessible to all. Jack's parallel text functions as both translation of and introduction to the 'mither tongue'; not one of MacDonald's carefully chosen words is lost, even whilst deeper understanding is gained. Any reader may now delight in the wisdom and charisma of one of MacDonald's best-loved and most influential novels." –Dr Kirstin Jeffrey Johnson MacDonald scholar and co-editor of Informing the Inklings "A daily devotional featuring the words and spiritual insights of George MacDonald was a wonderful idea, and Consuming Fire, named after MacDonald's great sermon of the same name, may be the perfect introduction to his reflections on God and Christian living. For those who already know and love these sermons, it will provide them with an opportunity to meditate daily on the spiritual insights contained therein." –Thomas Talbott, author of The Inescapable Love of God
