The Quotable Chesterton

G. K. Chesterton was a literary giant of his age. With an
exceptional intellect, he wrote about history, politics, economics, philosophy,
social and literary criticism, and theology. He published essays, novels, biographies,
short stories, and poetry, and the Christian classics Heretics, Orthodoxy, and The Everlasting Man, which C. S. Lewis
credits as instrumental in his conversion to Christianity.

With much of his finest material out of print or hard to find,
modern readers have long needed a standard collection of his best thoughts. Kevin
Belmonte�s The Quotable Chesterton brings
them to you arranged alphabetically by topic, with complete original source
documentation.

There are entries from Adventure to Cheese, Politics to
�mile Zola, interspersed with essays about Chesterton�s life and times.
Hundreds of passages drawn from Chesterton�s fiction, poetry, essays, and other
books showcase a man the New York Times
hailed as a �brilliant English essayist� and George Bernard Shaw called a
�colossal genius.�

�There isn�t a writer who gets me pacing and smiling and
thinking like G.K. Chesterton. His every paradigm shift is an adjustment to my mental
compass, and so a gift.� �DONALD MILLER, author of the New York Times bestsellers A

�Over the years, I have delivered thousands of lectures,
speeches, talks, and sermons; I have written hundreds of articles, essays,
books, and reviews; it is an exceedingly rare occasion when any of them should
fail to contain the words �Chesterton once said.� Kevin Belmonte here reveals
that fountain of wit, wisdom, and wonder, G.K. Chesterton, in all his
irresistibly, irrepressibly, quotable splendor.��GEORGE GRANT, Pastor, Parish
