Description
"Here, Knight crafts a portrait of Chesterton - the Fleet Street newspaperman who was able to entertain vast audiences as well as the thinker who could illuminate serious questions about justice, fairness, and faith, and who helped confront the new evils of the new century by creating works that gave vivid form to enduring truths about the good."--BOOK JACKET.
