Summary

This quirky, original compilation serves up the eccentric wit and thought-provoking aphorisms of one of the 20th century's liveliest and most articulate minds. Assembled by the president of the American Chesterton Society, it features alphabetical entries of "Chesternitions" -- pithy and poetic definitions of words in the spirit of Samuel Johnson. Great for casual browsing or cover-to-cover study.
