The Dover Reader: G. K. Chesterton

One of the twentieth century's most admired and influential authors, G. K. Chesterton (1874 – 1936) created an enduring body of work that encompasses journalism, poetry, plays, history, biography, apologetics, and detective fiction. Chesterton's thought-provoking writings have profoundly affected countless readers, including C. S. Lewis, Michael Collins, and Mahatma Gandhi.
This anthology features two unabridged works of fiction: Chesterton's thriller, "The Man Who Was Thursday", and his short story collection, "The Club of Queer Trades". The book also includes six tales from the ever-popular Father Brown detective stories; "Orthodoxy", Chesterton's classic examination of the foundations of Christian morality; and several essays on a remarkable variety of subjects, from chalk to cheese.
