The Two Jacks: J. B. Priestley and C. S. Lewis

Abstract

J.B. PRIESTLEY has always been Jack Priestley to his friends; but what is not so well known is the fact that Clive Staples Lewis was also intimately known as Jack. In early childhood he took a hearty dislike to his formal title, and insisted on being called ‘Jacksie’. This evolved into Jack; and Jack he stayed.
