Common Sense 101: Lessons From G.K. Chesterton

Dale Ahlquist, the President of the American Chesterton Society, and
author of G. K. Chesterton - The Apostel of Common Sense, presents a
book of wonderful insights on how to look at the whole world through the
eyes of Chesterton. Since, as he says, Chesterton wrote about
everything, there is an ocean of his material to benefit from GKC's
insights on a kaleidascpoe of many imortant topics. Chesterton wrote a
hundred books on a variety of themes, thousands of essasy for London
newspapers, penned epic poetry, delighted in detective fiction, drew
illustrations, and made everyone laugh by his keen humor. Everyone who
knew Chesterton loved him, even those he debated with. His unique
writing style that combines philosophy, spirituality, history, humor,
and paradox have made him one of the most widely read authors of modern
times. As Ahlquist shows in his engaging volume, this most quoted writer
of the 20th century has much to share with us on topics covering
politics, art, education, wonder, marriage, fads, poetry, faith, charity
and much more.
