Lewis (C. S., 1898-1963). The Pilgrim's Regress. An Allegorical Apology for Christianity, Reason and Romanticism, London: J. M. Dent and Sons Ltd, 1933. 8vo, original orange cloth (slightly rubbed and dust-soiled), map endpapers, spotting to half-title, title-page and final text-leaf (qty: 1) First edition, presentation copy, inscribed by Lewis to 'Daphne Harwood, with the author's compliments, May 1933' on the title-page. Daphne Harwood (née Olivier, 1889-1950) was the wife of Lewis's Oxford friend (Albert) Cecil Harwood (1898-1975), and a friend of Lewis's in her own right. While Cecil is not typically reckoned among the usual roll-call of Inklings members, he remained very much part of Lewis's circle, and is perhaps best remembered as a leading advocate of anthroposophy and the Steiner-Waldorf teaching method, to which he was introduced by Daphne. Provenance: Laurence Harwood OBE (1933-2020), regional director, National Trust, son of Cecil and Daphne Harwood, and godson of C. S. Lewis, noted as 'one of the few remaining people who really knew C. S. Lewis' (Deborah Higgens, 'A Personal Tribute to Laurence Harwood, OBE', C. S. Lewis Foundation official blog, 14 December 2020, accessed 24 May 2021). Further reading: Laurence Harwood, C. S.
