Orthodoxy : 9781640322455

Complete edition of Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton. Arranged upon a riddle and an answer, it tells how Chesterton himself went from pagan, to agnostic, to staunch Christian. Told in Chesterton's own voice, the book is a thought provoking manuscript as impactful today as it was in 1908.

Witty, deep, and positively entertaining, no student of thought should be without this historic book. This edition is provided in a slim volume with full text at an affordable price.
