Chesterton's Tavern: A Great Writer's Thoughts on Life and Wisdom - Perfect for Book Lovers, Philosophy Enthusiasts & Literary Gift Ideas

If we sat down with Chesterton in a tavern today, he would say very much the same things he said one hundred years ago.

 or

At a time when intellectuals and politicians were all telling the world that science had advanced us beyond Christianity, an enormously fat man in a cape with a walking stick laughed at them and refuted them with brilliant prose and witty one-liners.

Chesterton’s Tavern imagines what Chesterton would talk about if he were at ease in an English pub (which in fact is something he did enjoy doing). Kevin Belmonte shows that Chesterton’s insights are as true today as they were then. Chesterton was equally comfortable talking about fiction, myths, fairy tales, history, science, politics, and theology, because he saw them all as part of the strange world God had given us.
