"He had the capacity to see the practical results that will come out of a thought, like a man who could look at an acorn and see the oak.” G.K. Chesterton, as author David Fagerberg convincingly proposes, is as relevant today as he was at the turn of the last century. Chesterton is Everywhere is a charming collection of essays that apply the thought of the great English writer to everyday and eternal subjects.
Fagerberg discusses happiness (what Chesterton called “ the dotrine of conditional joy”), the realm of the ordinary, social reform, apologetics and Catholic life, and the transcendent truths “ that weigh upon every human being.”
Includes delightful illustrations by Theodore Schluenderfritz, artistic director of Gilbert magazine.
