DESCRIPTION

Chesterton died three months before this, what he called “the moribund and degrading task of writing the story of my life,” was published. It is no mere book of reminiscences. It is a biography more orderly than he ever wrote of other men. In it, he gives us details of his childhood, marriage, family, great alliance with Belloc, his patriotism, the genesis of Father Brown, and his conversion. In terms of biography, it is a paradigm. And, given Chesterton’s reputation for being the greatest wit in modern history, it is not surprising that this book is one of the funniest ever written.



GILBERT KEITH CHESTERTON (1874-1936) published some 116 books which include compilations of his voluminous journalism, novels, biography, history, criticism, Christian apologetics, poetry, and two plays. His books on Dickens and Saint Thomas Aquinas are considered classics in their fields. His approach to apologetics is completely unique, his work characterized by tremendous zest and energy, a mastery of paradox, a robust humour and forthright devotion.
