Given the relatively concise nature of the text, biographical exposition is avoided in favour of a detailed analysis of Chesterton's philosophical standpoint and literary achievements. 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.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e 1.
