Endpapers, colour frontispiece and numerous full page line drawings by Pauline Baynes. The second in the Narnia series.

Prince Caspian: The Return to Narnia is a high fantasy novel for children by C. S. Lewis, published by Geoffrey Bles in 1951. It was the second-published of seven novels in The Chronicles of Narnia (1950–1956), although it is volume four in recent editions, which are sequenced according to the novels' internal chronology. In the story, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are transported back to Narnia, where they aid Prince Caspian in his struggle for the throne against his corrupt uncle, King Miraz.
