Title: Best Bio on George MacDonald
Review: The most thorough bio on George MacDonald that is readily available today. Author makes extensive use of MacDonald's own writings as well as the accounts of Greville MacDonald, his son. I find it comforting and helpful that someone like MacDonald lived as he did, unabashedly. I feel he is something of a living template for many of us today. And I trust someone who you can tell loves the Father and knows he is loved by the Father as well. This is all reflected so well in the bio. Of course, as great as the bio is, it is still no substitute for MacDonald's actual works which is where is spirit really shines through. I would recommend a good dose of MacDonald reading before taking on the bio...the details of a man's life can lessen what is in his heart sometimes. Phantastes and At The Back Of The North Wind are great places to start.
