George MacDonald

George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a Scottish author and poet. He wrote on many subjects, including Christianity as he was a minister of the church. However, it is his children's fantasy and fairy stories for which he is remembered. J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, W.H. Auden and Edith Nesbit, to name but a few, were some of his fellow authors influenced by his work. 'The Princess and the Goblin' is his most enduring work.
