The Gift of Wonder: The Many Sides of G.K. Chesterton
Edited by Dale Ahlquist
The American Chesterton Society
List Price: $14.95
Member’s Price: $11.95
In this collection, an excellent group of writers offer Chestertonian perspectives on the Moral Imagination, Science, Law, Nietzche, Agriculture, Criticism, St. Francis, and more (including, of course, Murder Mysteries). The essay of Katya Volokhonskaia on the Russian Perspective of Chesterton is alone worth the price of the book. In the introduction, Dale Ahlquist writes, "Not only does Chesterton deserve to be studied, he should be required reading on the first day of class in every classroom, no matter what the subject. It is Chesterton more than anyone who provides the right frame of mind for any student opening the door on any subject."
