This work is labeled as the second book in Irish author Lewis' (November 29, 1898 - November 22, 1963) Chronicles of Narnia series, although the story is actually the forth chronologically within the complete narrative. When the series was originally published by Geoffrey Bles in London, the books were unnumbered. However, the first American publisher, Macmillan, numbered the books in accordance to their publication order rather than chronologically according to the entire narrative.
