5.0 out of 5 stars Chesterton!, June 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Collected Works of G.K. Chesterton: Thomas Carlyle, Leo Tolstoy, Robert Louis Stevenson, Chaucer (Paperback)

G.K. Chesterton, best known for his Father Brown detective stories, also stands out as a remarkable literary critic. He is most astute on Stevenson, his greatest influence, rightly seeing him as the first great writer to find beauty in a modern city. A must!
