Orthodoxy

Originally published in 1908 Orthodoxy is a companion book for Chestertons Heretics. In this volume considered a classic example of Christian apologetic writing Chesterton answers his detractors by providing his own philosophy for living a Christian life. By necessity he says the book must begin with how he came to believe and follow the development of his own faith. Only then could his words seem sincere. Christianity as Chesterton views it is the perfect answer to every one of humanitys great questions. Christians and spiritual seekers will find Chestertons ruminations an engaging and interesting read. English writer GILBERT KEITH CHESTERTON (1874-1936) was an accomplished author in many disciplines including poetry journalism and fiction. His witty humorous style earned him the title of the prince of paradox. He wrote 80 books-and nearly 4000 essays-on a variety of topics the most popular being The Man Who Was Thursday (1908).
