Description
Summary:Originally published in 1939, this book was formed from the Le Bas Prize Essay for 1938.

There are seven chapters discussing the following areas: 'Background and Influences'; 'Orthodoxy and the Catholic Church'; 'Political Beliefs'; 'The Novels'; 'The Essays'; 'The Poems'; 'Style and Argument'. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the works of Chesterton, philosophy and literary criticism.
