Walter Hooper wrote and edited books about C. S. Lewis, preserving letters, essays and biographical material that are central to modern Lewis scholarship. He edited collections including Selected Literary Essays, God in the Dock and major volumes of Lewis's correspondence, helping gather shorter works that had originally appeared across many different publications. C. S. Lewis: A Companion and Guide provides a reference-style introduction to Lewis's life, books, friends and intellectual context, while Through Joy and Beyond combines biography and photographs. Hooper's work is documentary and explanatory rather than argumentative, making it useful to readers moving from Lewis's fiction or apologetics into archival material. His books fit C. S. Lewis studies, Inklings scholarship, Christian literary history and edited correspondence. Read more Less
