This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Flambeau took his month's holiday from his office in Westminster he took it in a small sailing-boat, so small that it passed much of its time as a rowing-boat. He took it, moreover, in little rivers in the Eastern counties, rivers so small that the boat looked like a magic boat, sailing on land through meadows and cornfields. The vessel was just comfortable for two people; there was room only for necessities, and Flambeau had stocked it with such things as his special philosophy considered necessary. They reduced themselves, apparently, to four essentials: tins of salmon, if he should want to eat; loaded revolvers, if he should want to fight; a bottle of brandy, presumably in case he should faint; and a priest, presumably in case he should die. With this light luggage he crawled down the little Norfolk rivers, intending to reach the Broads at last, but meanwhile delighting in the overhanging gardens and meadows, the mirrored mansions or villages, lingering to fish in the pools and corners, and in some sense hugging the shore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chesterton portrays Father Brown as a short, stumpy Roman Catholic priest, with shapeless clothes, a large umbrella, and an uncanny insight into human evil. In "The Head of Caesar" he is "formerly priest of Cobhole in Essex, and now working in London." He makes his first appearance in the story "The Blue Cross" published in 1910 and continues to appear throughout forty-eight short stories in five volumes, with two more stories discovered and published posthumously, often assisted in his crime-solving by the reformed criminal M. Hercule Flambeau. Brown's abilities are also considerably shaped by his experience as a priest and confessor. In "The Blue Cross," when asked by Flambeau, who has been masquerading as a priest, how he knew of all sorts of criminal "horrors," Father Brown responds: "Has it never struck you that a man who does next to nothing but hear men's real sins is not likely to be wholly unaware of human evil?" He also states how he knew Flambeau was not really a priest: "You attacked reason. It's bad theology." The stories normally contain a rational explanation of who the murderer was and how Brown worked it out. He always emphasises rationality; some stories, such as "The Miracle of Moon Crescent," "The Oracle of the Dog," "The Blast of the Book" and "The Dagger with Wings," poke fun at initially sceptical characters who become convinced of a supernatural explanation for some strange occurrence, but Father Brown easily sees the perfectly ordinary, natural explanation. In fact, he seems to represent an ideal of a devout but considerably educated and "civilised" clergyman. That can be traced to the influence of Roman Catholic thought on Chesterton. Father Brown is characteristically humble and is usually rather quiet, except to say something profound. Although he tends to handle crimes with a steady, realistic approach, he believes in the supernatural as the greatest reason of all.

Book excerpt: "Despite insisting throughout his life that he was a journalist, G. K. Chesterton was famous in his day as the author of over one hundred books, including the Father Brown stories. He was a character literally larger than life, a man renowned for his wit who in his final years became even better known as a broadcaster on BBC radio. The Sins of G. K. Chesterton explores an often-overlooked aspect of his life and work -- the personal relationships with his younger brother Cecil, Cecil's wife Ada (also known as 'Keith') and, in particular, the friend and mentor of both brothers, Hilaire Belloc. This brilliant biographical study challenges the conventional image of Chesterton. With the help of previously unpublished material, Richard Ingrams reveals a more vulnerable figure, manipulated by his brother and Belloc, the domineering Anglo-Frenchman. It was the influence of both men that involved Chesterton in the greatest controversy of his life -- the Marconi scandal. While Ingrams's vivid account of the scandal and its aftermath is a stark reminder that anti-Semitism is nothing new in British political life, this work is also an absorbing tribute to a great English writer in need of rediscovery" --

This book was released on 2022-02-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chesterton has been referred to as the “prince of paradox”. He created the fictional priest-detective Father Brown, and wrote on apologetics. Even some of those who disagree with him have recognised the wide appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton wrote around 80 books, several hundred poems, some 200 short stories, 4,000 essays (mostly newspaper columns), and several plays. He was a literary and social critic, historian, playwright, novelist, Catholic theologian and apologist, debater, and mystery writer. Chesterton's writings consistently displayed wit and a sense of humour. He employed paradox, while making serious comments on the world, government, politics, economics, philosophy, theology and many other topics. Contents: 1. Detective: - The Innocence of Father Brown - The Wisdom of Father Brown 2. Religion: - Orthodoxy 3. Poetry: - The Ballad of the White Horse
