Chesterton fans?
Hello. I'm posting from Minnesota in USA. Wondering if there are any fans of G.K.Chesterton here? I've read most of his mysteries and enjoyed them - read Alarms and Discursions, just now have begun to read Everlasting Man.

At my request Patricia uploaded a number of Chesterton's works to the MR library. Take a look!

Good to have your company, Dmaus. No shortage of GK fans here. And beautifully formatted examples in the Public Domain from our recently departed good friend, Patricia, as GA says, are available for free download from the MobileRead library. Best wishes. Neil

I've listened to, and enjoyed, a couple of the audio books from Librivox. I've just started downloading some of the e-books from the MR library

...thx!
I've been heads down at work. Thank you for your replies. The Chesterton eworks are absolutely great. I just downloaded Everlasting Man.

"A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it." - Everlasting Man, 1925

"Misers get up early in the morning; and burglars, I am informed, get up the night before." - Tremendous Trifles
